This Movie Is About.
Wiki.
The Head Hunter (originally titled The Head) is a 2018 American independent fantasy horror film directed by Jordan Downey, who also co-wrote, produced, and edited the film. It stars Norwegian actor Christopher Rygh as the title character, Cora Kaufman, and Aisha Ricketts. The film centers on the title character, who works as a bounty hunter for a local kingdom, all the while he awaits the eventual return of the creature responsible for the murder of his daughter.
Influenced by Jean-Jacques Annaud's 1981 film Quest for Fire, The X-Files and Tales From the Crypt television series, The Head Hunter was developed by Downey and Kevin Stewart. The filming location was decided long before the story was developed. The initial concept came about during a writer's retreat, in which the filmmakers had assembled and hosted at Stewart's family home in Soutelo Mourisco, a small village in Northern Portugal. Norwegian actor Christopher Rygh was cast as the leading role, in his feature-film debut, after filmmakers discovered him while searching a casting website. Principal photography began in Bragança, Portugal, while additional scenes were shot in Norway, and California.
The Head Hunter first premiered at the Sitges Film Festival on October 6, 2018, as a part of the "Panorama Fantàstic" section. While the film was screened at Sitges, and Nightmares Film Festival under the title The Head, but the title was later changed to The Head Hunter due to lukewarm reactions. The film would garner several awards and nominations at the various film festivals it was screened at, and received positive reviews from critics upon its release, with many praising the film's atmosphere, cinematography, and Rygh's performance, though the low budget prompted some criticism.
