In the movie’s first half hour Renée is keen to help her dad with the hunt for this malefactor, while Anne seems more interested in using this circumstance as a pretext to get the hell out of Dodge, buy a house where the normies live, and send Renée to an actual school, etcetera. A very hungry rogue wolf, one that apparently screwed up Joe’s hunting some time before, is back, and it’s up to some nasty stuff. Soon after the movie opens, there’s another challenge. When the season is not fecund, the family goes hungry. (Given that one character shows up in the movie with a cassette Walkman with him, it’s a little ambiguous as to when the movie is actually set, although the odds of this character being an affected retro dude are pretty good, too.) Joe mainly sticks to hunting and showing Renée how to skin their catches, which include muskrats, beaver, and raccoon, some of which apparently make good eatin’. Since the family doesn’t seem to own a computer, we don’t know if Joe is QAnon curious or not. The most modern equipment they seem to own are a set of walkie-talkies. Devon Sawa plays Joe Mersault, a trapper whose nuclear family-wife-of-saintly-patience Anne ( Camille Sullivan) and eager if occasionally queasy student of the traditional ways tween daughter Renée (Summer H. Howell)-live off the land in a cabin in some deep Northern woods (the movie was largely shot in Manitoba). One man’s determination to keep his life completely old-school proves utterly ruinous in “Hunter Hunter,” a movie written and directed by Shawn Linden.
