HAPPY HUNTING - "Best Film" winner at MidWest WeirdFest - in select theaters and VOD now

September 23, 2017

HAPPY HUNTING the "ruthless social satire" (THE HOLLYWOOD REPORTER) written and directed by Louie Gibson and Joe Dietsch is now screening in select theaters and available on iTunes.

The film opens on Warren (Martin Dingle Wall), a degenerate drifter, scraping by, and suffering from debilitating alcohol withdrawals on a daily basis. On his way down to Mexico, he finds himself stranded in Bedford Flats, a one-horse town nestled deep in the American desert. It was a once-prosperous hunting community that has been reduced to an impoverished dust bowl. Unfortunately for Warren, it turns out that the town’s pastime is rounding up drifters and hunting them as part of an elaborate sporting event. To make matters worse, he'll go into alcoholic withdrawal unless he finds a way to stay intoxicated. It all builds to a blood-soaked, live-or-die showdown deep in the desert.
