d6a2afd33b Jack Cutter is the last in long line of vampire hunters. After killing few vampires in one L.A. restaurant, he is chased both by police and by other vampires. In the process he meets an attractive woman-reporter. Pun intended. This low budget action/horror vehicle for Don Wilson&#39;s ability to kick things is the stuff direct-to-video fare is made of.<br/><br/>The plot: Wilson is a humorless vampire hunter who comes under fire from local law enforcement after he is forced to slaughter creatures of the night in view of the public. Police chase him, vampires chase him, he responds by kicking…a lot.<br/><br/>There is a little more to the story, but it is so inconsequential that I honestly can&#39;t remember it; I think people actually spoke in the movie, but that&#39;s up to debate. The plot is nothing more than a set-up for Wilson to killmany vampirespossible in the running time, usually by kicking them.<br/><br/>The technical specs are, in a word, anemic. Little color treating, amateurish use of lighting, simplistic use of camera and angle. Blood and gore is noticeably limited, odd for this type of film. The most hurtful of the filming foul-ups is the jarring shift to super-shaky cam during each and every fight scene. If the camera begins to bounce around like a reese monkey on speed, then you know Don is about to start kicking everything in sight.<br/><br/>All in all, this is the kind of bad movie that can be made good with a few friends and a lot of cynical humor. Otherwise, do not watch, unless you really like to watch things get kicked.<br/><br/>3/10 Don Wilson starsJack Cutter (Ooh real tough name!)a vampire slayer who goes up against a vampire army, you see the story is a little different because vampires can&#39;t be killed with silver, crosses or sunlight but rather through snapping their necks (How convenientit cuts down on the budget) and it&#39;s here Cutter runs into a reporter (Melanie Smith of Trancers III fame) Night Hunter&#39;s action sequences shake for no reason during the fight sequences and although it&#39;s meant to emphasize the mood, it just makes the movie more jarring. What is worse is that these fight sequences are botched beyond beliefWilson&#39;s martial artistry is disguised by disjointed editing. Of course the most interest comes from the fact that indeed this predates Blade, however the problem is that this was done on a small budget and that it had Don Wilson in it. It&#39;s from Roger Corman and basically this turkey is a movie most people would pay NOT to see. I unfortunately am a bottom feeder and I cater to the section of the store looking for gems, in this line of work you always run into turds. With Night Hunter, I just may have the world&#39;s stinkiest turd.<br/><br/>1/2* out of 4-(Awful)
