Universal's "The Hunt" isn't even out yet, but many are taking to Twitter to react to the film's trailer, calling it "beyond sick" and "disturbing."

"The Hunt," which initially was going to be titled "Red State vs. Blue State," is billed as a satire that follows wealthy thrill-seekers as they take a private jet to a five-star resort, where they embark on a “deeply rewarding” expedition that involves hunting down and killing "deplorables."

"Universal is releasing a horrific movie about hunting down people called The Hunt. They pulled the ads but they have not stopped its release. Absolutely irresponsible movie and fosters hate and killing of people who don’t believe the same as the hunters. Hollywood be shamed," a user wrote.

Another shared: "I just read a report on the movie “The Hunt” that comes out soon. this is why I can’t pick a side. A movie about rounding up a group of “deplorables” and HUNTING them is ok? Put all the gun laws on the books but we’re entertained by a movie about killing Trump supporters."

"The idea & trailer for The Hunt is disturbing. The fact it was done by the same people responsible for The Purge movies speaks of how much Hollywood believes & desires our nation to devolve into Civil War, chaos, & a place where only Leftist elites survive," a user tweeted.

"Universal is releasing a movie next month called 'The Hunt' that depicts Trump supporters being hunted down like animals. That is BEYOND sick," one user shared.
But can you imagine the outrage if this movie was about hunting liberals instead?

They would probably commit another mass shooting.

Universal Pictures told Fox News on Wednesday: "Out of sensitivity to the attention on the country’s recent shooting tragedies, Universal Pictures and the filmmakers of The Hunt have temporarily paused its marketing campaign and are reviewing materials as we move forward."

"The Hunt” stars Betty Gilpin, Ike Barinholtz and Hillary Swank and is scheduled to be released on Sept. 27.

Film at 11... 🤔

So, Drafter.... practical question.

On facebook.... on twitter... on forums here and elsewhere... I see idiots on the right talk about how successful the right will be in any armed conflict with the left because they have all the guns.

How is this movie any different? Are you just upset because they have a bigger budget and can pay people to act out their masturbatory fantasy while you're left with a one photo facebook meme to jerk it to?

I saw a couple different ads a few times...never registered to me that there was a political slant....I just thought it was about hunting people....


Wasn't that ok when Hunger Games did it?

in hunger games it was those pesky libruls who wanted rights and stuff they were hunting or having kill each other for their amusement. so it was ok.

and in the purge, it was those pesky libruls who didnt' want to hunt criminals once a year or own guns they were hunting... so it was ok.

now they're upset.

I'm sure it'll be a reasonably dumb movie.

Have they actually used terminology to label conservatives in "the hunt" or is that just what you've been told is happening.
