The Hunt (2020)

In a group text, Athena Stone anticipates an upcoming hunt of deplorables at a manor (“Manorgate”). Later, on her private jet, she kills a man who staggers out from the cargo hold. Eleven captives wake up gagged, in a forest, for the hunt. In a clearing, they find a cache of weapons and keys to their gags, but upon retrieving them, five are killed by an unseen enemy. Three captives escape over a barbed-wire fence to a service station. The station’s owners, an elderly couple consisting of Miranda “Ma” and Julius “Pop”, identify their location as Arkansas. The three escapees, each kidnapped from a different part of the United States, realize their situation’s similarity to the “Manorgate” conspiracy theory.

One of the three eats a poisoned donut and collapses, while Ma and Pop (who are amongst the captors’ ranks) kill a second with poison gas and the third with a blast from a sawed-off shotgun. They then clean up the station for the next person to come in. A fourth captive, army veteran Crystal Creasey, arrives. Asking for cigarettes and their location, she makes conversation with Ma and Pop, and the latter get nervous. Crystal then attacks and kills the couple with the sawed-off shotgun the couple had under the counter; she reveals that the cigarettes were too expensive for Arkansas.
