… a favorite among a stellar lineup of female filmmaking talent.
Angela Atwood’s dark comedy/horror short Lady Hunters is a deeply relevant and powerful addition … With the strong message powered by the occasional appropriate humor, the film not only makes a statement in regards to its topical meaning but also its intriguing narrative.
review by Claire L Smith, Morbidly Beautiful
As the predators become the hunted, the issues of rape culture and sexism are addressed with sensitivity and urgency. Although appropriately comedic at times, Lady Hunters remains a powerful yet important addition to the horror genre.
They many not be household names yet, but these inspiring and gifted female filmmakers are changing the game and need to be on your radar.
It’s an absolute must watch.
Written and directed by Angela Atwood (who also stars in it), Lady Hunters follow three women who, during a weekend together without their spouses or kids, become an ad hoc vigilante group.
Amazon Anthology review by Chloe Gold
Heart-wrenching yet powerful, Lady Hunters is a film that intends to speak to those familiar with the issues surrounding sexual assault in the justice system/public mind, and pries open the eyes of those who are ignorant to such injustice.

We celebrate the unsung brilliance of the horror short and recognize ten of our favorites from a year of exceptional output.
