Among these men are Carlos Alvarez, Venezuelan Drug Lord; U.S. Army General Ellison; and Ochiro Sumanni, a Japanese Gang Boss. All the while, we follow the Contestants as they struggle to survive the attacks not by of the hunters, but also each other.

| User ReviewDavid SThis is one of those hokey movies about people being forced to kill one another until only one remains and survive rich-men's hunting teams. Mostly stupid, sure. But kinda stupid-fun kind of stupid. |
| User ReviewLarry YEntertaining for the wrong reasons, I laughed many times. Who knew there was so many people being hunted for sport movies? |
