Original release – 1980rr”One of Jean Rollin’s least-seen and most underrated works, The Night of the Hunted (La Nuit des traquÃ©es) finds the director moving away from his trademark tales of vampirism to explore a nightmarish, dystopian world.rr rrIn the dead of night, Elisabeth is rescued from unknown pursuers by Robert and taken to safety. But, after she is kidnapped and taken to an austere clinic whose distressed and abused patients are suffering from progressive memory loss, Robert sets out to find her and discover what is taking place in the clinic.rr rrShot at night on a shoestring budget, with a cast mostly drawn from France’s adult-film industry, The Night of the Hunted stars Rollin regulars Brigitte Lahaie (Fascination) and Natalie Perrey (Lips of Blood), and offers a stark and melancholic take on contemporary society.”rr rrExtras”INDICATOR LIMITED EDITION 4K UHD SPECIAL FEATURESrr rrNew 4K HDR restoration from the original negative by Powerhouse Filmsrr4K (2160p) UHD presentation in Dolby Vision (HDR10 compatible)rrOriginal French mono soundtrackrrSelected scenes audio commentary with writer-director Jean Rollin (2006)rrSelected scenes audio commentary with actor Brigitte Lahaie and Jean Rollin (2006)rrAudio commentary with film expert and author Tim Lucas (2023)rrJean Rollin Introduces ‘The Night of the Hunted’ (1998): filmed appraisalrrJean Rollin on the ‘The Night of the Hunted’ (2007): the director in conversation with festival programmer and journalist Joshua T Gravel at the Fantasia Film Festival, MontrealrrPerdues: ‘La Nuit des traquÃ©es’(2023): updated documentary on the making of The Night of the Hunted, directed by Rollin’s personal assistant, Daniel Gouyette, and including interviews with Lahaie, critic Daniel Bird, and key collaborators Jean-Pierre Bouyxou and Natalie PerreyrrLe Pont (2023): short film revisiting the aqueduct seen in The Night of the HuntedrrNewly edited archival interview with Lahaie (2023)rrNewly edited archival interview with producer Lionel Wallmann (2023)rrArchival interview with porn performer Alain Plumey, who acted in The Night of the Hunted and Fascination, filmed at the Museum of Eroticism (2006)rrFilmed critical appreciation by author and musician Stephen Thrower (2023)rrAlternative sex scenesrrOriginal theatrical trailerrrImage galleries: promotional and publicity material, and behind the scenesrrNew and improved English translation subtitlesrrLimited edition exclusive 80-page book with a new essay by RuairÃ McCann, archival writing by Jean Rollin on the making of the film, an archival interview with actor Brigitte Lahaie, and full film creditsrrWorld premiere on 4K UHDrrLimited edition of 10,000 numbered units (6,000 4K UHDs and 4,000 Blu-rays) for the UK and USrr rrAll extras subject to change”rr
