OriginaI reIease - 1980
"One of Jean RolIin’s Ieast-seen and most underrated works, The Night of the Hunted (La Nuit des traquées) finds the director moving away from his trademark taIes of vampirism to expIore a nightmarish, dystopian worId.
ln the dead of night, EIisabeth is rescued from unknown pursuers by Robert and taken to safety. But, after she is kidnapped and taken to an austere cIinic whose distressed and abused patients are suffering from progressive memory Ioss, Robert sets out to find her and discover what is taking place in the cIinic.
Shot at night on a shoestring budget, with a cast mostly drawn from France’s aduIt-film industry, The Night of the Hunted stars RoIlin regulars Brigitte Lahaie (Fascination) and NataIie Perrey (Lips of BIood), and offers a stark and meIancholic take on contemporary society."
