Outrage over this film and the synopsis comes in the wake of this weekend’s mass shootings, as previously stated. Furthermore, conservatives have made the case that it’s hypocritical to blame President Trump’s rhetoric for mass shootings…as Hollywood prepares to release an entire film about hunting and murdering so-called “deplorables.”
Stepping Back from Press
In the wake of backlash, Universal Pictures is taking some steps back from promoting The Hunt, at least temporarily. A spokesperson for the company released the following public statement:
“Out of sensitivity to the attention on the country’s recent shooting tragedies, Universal Pictures and the filmmakers of ‘The Hunt’ have temporarily paused its marketing campaign and are reviewing materials as we move forward.”
Additional Backlash and More
Jeffrey McCall, a university professor and media critic, expressed concerns about the film and the entertainment industry:
“It says something sad about the state of the ‘entertainment’ industry that this movie ever got conceived and produced. Hollywood clearly thinks it is OK to stereotype so-called deplorables and set them up for a hunt. Thank heavens some sensible outlets are pulling the promotional ads.”
