This Alzheimer's nightmare has an uncanny, downbeat atmosphere that can't be dissipated, even by the comical regularity with which Rollin's stars disrobe, or some crude scissors-in-eyes gore.

Product Description:
Cult French sex-horror director Jean Rollin created this oddity in 1980. This one is a strange departure from his usual vampire-themed fare: In a strange future society, the residents of an apartment building suffer from collective amnesia and insanity, resulting in extreme sex and violence (a la David Cronenberg's SHIVERS and J.G. Ballard's novel HIGH RISE). A strange and interesting curiosity for those with a tolerance for gore.
Description by Image Entertainment:
A girl escapes from an asylum but before she is tracked down, she falls in love with a man who attempts to rescue her. But he only ruins himself in the process. Stylish, futuristically surreal and a departure from director Jean Rollin's familiar vampire territory, "The Night of the Hunted" features a mass of people suffering with insanity and collective amnesia. Bizarre, even by Rollin's standards, it still displays fairy tale qualities mixed with extremes of sadism, sex and violence. Restored from the original negative.
