Are People Seriously Arguing That “The Hunt” Is Biased Against “The Deplorables”?

I’m only going by the trailer in insisting that it’s not but that’s more than most of its critics seem to be going on. This passage from THR’s write-up of the movie, whose ads were pulled after the El Paso and Dayton shootings, is making the rounds:

Haven’t been to ‘the movies’ in literally years. This just firms up my determination.

Another article posted here earlier claims it’s directed against pro lifers... Never forget: there’re a lot of bat-shit crazy people out there...

It’s pretty bad, not only the premise of the movie but the acting as well. They really don’t care enough to do research enough to do a believable southern accent. The trailer that I saw had the actors doing one of those accents that non-southerners think southerners sound like. Believe me, I’m an Appalachian American from eastern Kentucky, GO BIG BLUE, and these accents are only believable to non-southerners.

I gotta admit I didn't see the twist coming at the end of Green Inferno, and then I laughed and laughed and laughed because it's so 100% believable. Spoiler: "They are a peaceful agricultural people, they saved my life" LOL Truly unintentional comedy... or was it intended?

Yeah, a lot of people jumped to conclusions about this one. I think maybe they only watched the one “Hunting at the Manor” trailer that is like a commercial the point of view of the villains, and didn’t bother to watch the actual trailer that reveals a bit more of the plot.

In addition to a Kentucky accent, there is an accent for each state. And the Black people from the Shenandoah Vally, Virginia have a wonderfully distinct and pleasant accent. A modern day Henry Higgins could place the accent to the specific holler.

What county in Eastern Kentucky? I tried to go to school in Breathitt County in 1973.

I was raised in Floyd Co, town of Martin. There’s actually a wonderful book about my little town. It really is a great read.

The Town on Beaver Creek: The Story of a Lost Kentucky Community, https://www.amazon.com/Town-Beaver-Creek-Kentucky-Community/dp/0375509054, if you’re into Appalachian history and culture.

Killing “Deplorables” is every liberal’s wet dream.

Yes, if the Deplorables destroy the elites, might be okay. But, since I don’t trust Pedowood’s motives, I’ll wait and decide.
