For all the movie's virtues, Pig Hunt is hampered by the usual faults of the horror genre -- undeveloped characters, jokes that fall flat and dialogue that often feels like filler.

Rated: 2/4

Projected Figures

shows a real adeptness at confounding the viewer with all manner of genre-bound elements presented in gleefully unpredictable combinations... which merge into a much bigger picture, way beyond the bounds of conventional genre cinema

Despite the retro-dirt-track ambience of a Rob Zombie film, Pig Hunt comes off more like a SciFi Channel B movie.

Rated: C-

Viscerally exciting enough to wake the dead, and yet politically and morally engaged enough to gore its way right into your brain. What more could anyone want from horror?

Amusingly poor horror flick featuring a giant man-eating boar and a lot of Tina Huang in her bra. A muddy 'n' bloody mix of Razorback, Deliverance and Mad Max.

Far exceeded my expectations. The low budget hurt it in some pretty glaringly obvious places (acting calibre, for one) but they ran with what they had and what we end up with ain't too shabby.

I enjoyed this movie, but that doesn't make it good film.

Oh my, what does one say about Pig Hunt? Let's start with the song, Booneville Stomp, from Les Claypool. I love the song, but I love even more the way they inserted bits of it throughout the film to set the mood. Well done. This film started very slow, and I fell asleep the first time I tried to watch it. I went back for another go and I'm glad I did. We've got pig heads, we've got human heads, we've got boobies and we've got blood and guts and bones all over the place. There's a lot going on. We have the hillbillies hell bent on revenge, trying to kill the city folk, we have the hippies trying to feed the city folk to a giant wild boar, we've got the city folk killing the hillbillies and the hippies to survive, and sadly, everyone's so busy killing everyone else, no one paid any attention to the glorious marijuana crop. For what I would consider a member of the "bad horror" genre, this was actually quite pleasantly gruesome and entertaining after the boring start.

A teen slasher meets deliverance meets X-Files. Pretty sure this was shot over a long weekend for a whopping budget of $14 and a Subway sandwich.
