THE HUNTED
Internet Series Written, Produced and Directed by Robert Chapin

The Hunted

The Hunted is an internet series that combines elements of "Buffy the Vampire Slayer" and "Highlander" shot in the style of "Cops." Set in present day Los Angeles, people who have been bitten by vampires have banded together to protect themselves from recurring attacks. The vampires, like cockroaches, have developed an immunity to everything over the years: crosses, sunlight, and holy water have no effect, and a stake in the heart just pisses them off. The only way they can be killed is to have their head cut off.

The Hunted

The pilot episode of the Hunted entitled "FRESH MEAT" introduces the world of the Hunted through the eyes of a geeky newcomer, Gary. When several members of the Hunted attempt to prove the existence of vampires by shooting video of a vampire attack, Gary unexpectedly gets in the way and is bitten. Gary refuses to join the Hunted and is immediately captured by Vincent Marlowe, an extremely powerful vampire, who accuses Gary of killing his only daughter. Gary is saved by the Hunted, but Marlowe retaliates by killing Gary's newfound love and vampire groupie, Fran. Gary resolves to join the Hunted in their fight, even though the video that they risked their lives for is mistaken for a new hit vampire show.

"MANHUNT"
mnht1.gif (3999 bytes)


Described as a "FATAL ATTRACTION" meets "THELMA AND LOUISE", "MANHUNT" offers audiences the ultimate conflict in the war between the sexes... When your average, single noncommittal male CHRISTOPHER BENNETT is drawn into a brief but passionate relationship with the alluring KATHARINE, three simple words "I love you" will mean more than a testimony of commitment and affection, they will mean the difference between life and death. When Katharine finds evidence of Christopher's past unresolved relationships, she accuses him of lying to her when he told her those three simple words. Christopher only makes matters worse when he tries to remedy the situation with another three words, just as familiar, and just as deadly -- "let's be friends". Determined to teach Chris a lesson he won't forget, Kathy holds Chris to the one promise he ever made to her -- a picnic in the desert. In the middle of the harsh and lifeless desert, Kathy suddenly produces a shotgun instead of sandwiches informing Chris "this ain't gonna be no picnic". She then produces a bullet for every girl Chris ever slept with, lied to, or cheated on. This is how many chances he's got, he's got sixty seconds, start running... While blaming Chris for every atrocity ever commited towards womankind, Kathy tracks Chris across the endless desert -- the perfect arena for the battle of the sexes where the greatest equalizer is a single shotgun. In this action/adventure desert chase, dramatic tension is combined with a near-lethal dose of black comedy as Chris must somehow come to term with the truth of Kathy's accusations, face the reality of past relationships, find his way out of the desert, and end this deadly game called "MANHUNT. "
