The Head Hunter (2018)
The Head Hunter (2018) is a dark fantasy horror film directed by Jordan Downey. The movie stars Christopher Rygh as a lone medieval warrior living in isolation, consumed by a single, relentless purpose: to hunt down and kill the creature that murdered his daughter.
Set in a bleak and atmospheric medieval landscape, the story follows this nameless warrior as he spends his days hunting and slaying monsters, collecting their heads as trophies, and preparing for the inevitable confrontation with the one beast he truly seeks.
The film is largely a one-man show, focusing on the warrior’s solitary life, his brutal battles, and his obsession with revenge. His quiet, grim existence is haunted by the loss of his daughter, and he lives for the moment when he can finally confront the monster responsible.
With minimal dialogue and a slow-burn narrative, The Head Hunter creates tension through its stark visuals, eerie atmosphere, and haunting score.
The film is noted for its low-budget yet effective use of practical effects and its deeply personal, character-driven story. Despite being a short and minimalist film, it offers a gripping exploration of grief, vengeance, and survival, making it a standout in the fantasy-horror genre.
