THE WOMAN HUNT 1972 (DVD-R)

One of the most neglected Philippine films ever made under the Roger Corman banner, this film is very good.
John Ashley and Sid haig are two men who help kidnap women and take them to a rich man who proceeds to hunt them down for sport. Eddie Garcia is the head sadistic hunter, sexy as hell Lisa Todd is a black leather clad sadist and pat Woodell and Charlene jones are two of the women kidnapped for this evil sport.
This does have a lot of comedy involving Haig, and I am cool with that and was very surprised at what happens to his character so early. Eddie Romero does his usual credible job of directing, and Jack Hill co-wrote the story.
I cannot believe this hasn't been given a DVD release under the Shout factory banner yet, but I keep hoping.
Very well made exploitation film.

    1. I burned mine from a VHS tape I had. Still waiting for the DVD release.
      I don't know if anyone is selling DVD-R's of this.
