The Night of the Hunted
La Nuit des traquées
A woman with no memories runs in fear through the night when she is rescued by a man passing by. They will both have to figure out who her mysterious enemies are and what they want to achieve.
Why it matters
A languid, dreamlike chase through urban shadows where memory and menace blur into a hypnotic mystery.
- Jean Rollin’s signature blend of eerie tranquility and surreal atmosphere anchors this late-night thriller.
- Brigitte Lahaie’s haunting presence elevates the film beyond its loose narrative logic.
- Fans of European cult horror will appreciate the soft-focus sensuality and moody cityscapes.
- Not for those chasing tight plotting — this is atmosphere over action, a noir-tinged ghost story in slow burn.
