In the wake of a trio of deadly massacres, the studio is evaluating its strategy for the R-rated Blumhouse satire in which elites stalk "deplorables."

A film like this comes out every decade or two.

Nobody sees them. Nobody's dead yet.

Gee the news tells me it's the right and Trump that advocates violence.

If President Trump wanted to stir the pot (and he does, with great glee), he'd call for a total ban on guns in movies and on TV.

Weak minded people emulate what they see, and as long as we have weak minded people watching TV...

The propaganda is usually overt. Subtle doesn’t work, with today’s audiences. The message needs to hit them over the heads with a hammer.

LOL, tagline...

It’s a roadmap to the eventual legalized slaughter of the American People.

This is a plan for "ethnic cleansing," viz. the replacement of the American People with immigrants from Third World Countries.

Seems like a totally legit AD, then suddenly shocks the hell out of you.

If I did not know the plot, I would assume that Conservatives were hunting Leftists.


Nah, my inference meter is fine.

All the ones being hunted are White people from MAGA country. Also, these days, all the “Elites” are rich liberals.

If the Elites were conservative, you can be sure that at least SOME (if not all) of the hunted would be minorities from the inner city.

I guess we will see for sure when the movie comes out.

"...satire in which elites stalk "deplorables.""

It has to be a movie/fantasy because we all know in reality that isn't how it would go down.

The vast majority of us deplorables are well trained in firearms, a lot of us are veterans with years of combat experience, tactics, and urban assault training.

Trailer #2:

Austere, uber-greedy, biz-minded honkies in biz meeting in elite glass high-rises declare in decribing their human hunting biz idea, “It’s just BUSINESS..!!!”

Vaguely Nazi-like, biz suits and Lear Jets.

Remember how Hollywood is this much-vaunted, whirling dervish of creativity..?

Yeah. About that:

Kay, this movie is a cross between The Living Dead and the movie, The Purge, from 4 years ago or so.

You know, the one where it turns out all honkies have An Inner Killer silently lurking in them, just yearning to get out.

Extra points:

What little-known, much-chagrined, much-covered up history served as the FODDER for this gristly film idea..?

"Imagine what would happen if they manage to steal 2020."

They won't need to steal it, after the President and Republicans in Congress help Democrats with passing the red flag law. Incrementalism is an important part of the communists' strategy.

Reminder about past film “Get Out” from same director:

Sexy honky chick entices ultra-earnest upstanding urban yute into visiting her parents at their urbane manor out in the country.

Psychologist mom entices & hypnotizes him, evil neurosurgeon dad tries to surgery him.

Why?

To surgically prep him for receipt into his brain the SOUL of a sickly, elderly HONKY in need of a new young BODY, even if black..!

Good God. Isn’t it true we all SECRETLY wish to BECOME black..? Oh, yes. Yes we do:

Yute’s even more earnest bro buddy from the big city gets suspicious, drives out to the countryside to try and rescue his pal and...

Deplorables have more people who are skilled in violence.

The Left has a LOT more people who will be WILLING to commit violence, and are used to getting away with it.

And lack of skill can be fixed.

“The Left has a LOT more people who will be WILLING to commit violence, and are used to getting away with it.”

Mmmmeeeehhhh, right up until first engagement...Willingness seems to fade away once you get that first violent solid punch in the mouth from someone that doesn’t back down. That is experience talking.

From movie web.com”

“In the shadow of a dark internet conspiracy theory, a group of globalist elites gathers for the very first time at a remote Manor House to hunt humans for sport. But the elites’ master plan is about to be derailed because one of the hunted, Crystal (Betty Gilpin, GLOW), knows The Hunters’ game better than they do. She turns the tables on the killers, picking them off, one by one, as she makes her way toward the mysterious woman (two-time Oscar® winner Hilary Swank) at the center of it all.”

Back in 1968, after the murder of Bobby Kennedy by a Palestinian immigrant, an anti-violence hysteria took over the USA.
TV shows were dumbed down to kiddie shows, movies shown on TV were butchered to remove “violent” scenes.

The movie industry said they would police themselves with a joke of a ratings system.”GMRX”.

With the Hays code now dead, they re-shot scenes adding more blood, guts and sex to get the coveted “R” rating.

TV and movies are far, far more violent now than before the ratings system.

The idea for this film comes from a murky intersection between real history and conspiracy theory:

The Rothchilds used to be an uber-wealthy banking family, had real-estate all over, still have some.

Their properties included a really yuge hunting lodge in Austria, finally sold just 20 year ago or so. It had expansive hunting grounds, all around. Super big-shots went there to hunt.

99% of the hunting there was unremarkable, but THEY SAY a that The Game was, uh....MORE CHALLENGING, a few times, if you catch my drift.

Cuz super big money and ultra treachery, contempt for da slobbering peasantz. Maybe an old true Dick Cheney-type story from back in the day, then upgraded.

True? Meh, I don’t know, don’t think so.

They just re-arranged a few details in the narrative, then started filming.

Basically they took their own sins and grafted them onto the faces of those whom they hate.

Actually Micheal Dudikoff back in the UA heydays (80’s) did this exact movie, but it was only him being hunted.
