Director: Greg Swinson, Ryan Thiessen
A single-location slasher built around one long, brutal night shift, Hunt Her Kill Her (2023) trades jump scares for creeping dread inside an empty furniture factory.
What is Hunt Her Kill Her about?
Karen, a mother scraping together enough hours to keep her family afloat, takes an overnight janitorial job at a sprawling furniture plant. Her supervisor assures her the building will be empty until morning. That assurance starts to crack almost immediately: a car idles too long in the parking lot, a door she locked swings open on its own, and the factory's cavernous aisles start to feel less like a workplace and more like a trap. Told largely in near-real time, the film follows Karen as she pieces together that she is not alone, and that whoever else is inside the building did not arrive by accident. Co-directors Greg Swinson and Ryan Thiessen lean on practical spaces, sodium-lit corridors, and sustained tension rather than a large cast or elaborate plotting, keeping the scope tight and the stakes personal.
Cast & crew
Natalie Terrazzino carries most of the film alone as Karen, playing exhaustion and resolve in roughly equal measure as the night wears on. JC Oakley III, Larry Bunton, and Philip Zimny round out a small supporting roster that keeps the focus locked on the factory floor rather than spreading it across subplots.
Context & significance
At 98 minutes, Hunt Her Kill Her sits in the lineage of lean, location-bound horror thrillers that rely on sound design and blocking over gore for their scares. The factory setting doubles as both workplace and hunting ground, a choice that lets the filmmakers wring tension out of ordinary objects like forklifts, break rooms, and loading docks.
