During a visit in the town he witnesses a dog-fight. He interrupts the game and buys one of the dogs – almost dead already – for $200 against the owner’s will. When the owner Hasel complains to Mountie Sergeant Millen, he refuses to take action. But then the loathing breeder and his friends accuse Johnson of murder. So Millen, although sympathetic, has to try to take him under arrest – but Johnson defends his freedom in every way possible.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch3\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eSTARS:\u003cspan\u003e \u003c\/span\u003e\u003ca href=\"https:\/\/www.imdb.com\/name\/nm0000314\/?ref_=tt_ov_st\"\u003eCharles Bronson\u003c\/a\u003e,\u003cspan\u003e \u003c\/span\u003e\u003ca href=\"https:\/\/www.imdb.com\/name\/nm0001511\/?ref_=tt_ov_st\"\u003eLee Marvin\u003c\/a\u003e,\u003cspan\u003e \u003c\/span\u003e\u003ca href=\"https:\/\/www.imdb.com\/name\/nm0002989\/?ref_=tt_ov_st\"\u003eAndrew Stevens\u003c\/a\u003e\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003ch3\u003e\n\u003cbr\u003e\u003cstrong\u003e\u003cspan style=\"text-decoration: underline;\"\u003e97 min | Action, Adventure, Crime | 1981 | Color\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003cstrong\u003e\u003cspan style=\"text-decoration: underline;\"\u003e\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\n\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e \u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch3\u003e\u003cstrong\u003e\u003cspan style=\"color: rgb(43, 0, 255);\"\u003eMovies with low demand and\/or out of print are manufactured-to-order using high quality recordable DVDs.

To do so, however, would be to overlook a well-made gem of an adventure film.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe problem, of course, with most films of this ilk is that they offer a minimum set-up and characters and then set the guns a-blazin’. Not so here. The premise is established well, with Bronson as the noble loner and Marvin as the gruff, weary Canadian Mountie. The themes and plot devices are familiar, to be sure – the sense of honor, the anti-hero, the wet behind the ears rookie lawman, even a little bit of a love story.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eI had seen most of this film on cable and thought I understood it. Recently I rented it so I could finally see the first half hour and my feelings about it changed. Seeing the film from start to finish, I realized I had misjudged the intentions of the Marvin character. I thought the character was just another “honorable to the point of dishonorable” hero, when in fact he’s a conflicted man. During the film, you can see that he knows he’s as much responsible for what has happened, and he’s not so much interested in “doing the right thing” as he is in covering his own rear end.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eI was surprised to see in the beginning that the film is set in 1931; it seems much like a Western. But then you realize that this was still a very isolated area and that, unlike the southwest, civilization hadn’t quite caught up with this part of the world yet – particularly with lawmen like Marvin on duty.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e“Death Hunt” delivers all the goods. There is plenty of action and excitement, yet also a lot of substance as the story unfolds. It’s a notch above most films of its kind.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp dir=\"ltr\"\u003e\u003ca href=\"https:\/\/rareandcollectibledvds.com\/product\/major-dundee\"\u003e\u003cspan\u003eMajor Dundee\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/a\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp dir=\"ltr\"\u003e\u003ca href=\"https:\/\/rareandcollectibledvds.com\/product\/the-deserter-aka%E2%80%A6-devils-backbone\"\u003e\u003cspan\u003eThe Deserter aka The Devil’s Backbone\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/a\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"FilmClassicsonDVD","offers":[{"title":"DVD","offer_id":51462435963167,"sku":"dehau-1","price":12.94,"currency_code":"AUD","in_stock":true},{"title":"DOWNLOAD","offer_id":51462435995935,"sku":"dehau-2","price":10.94,"currency_code":"AUD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0944\/0788\/5087\/files\/Death-Hunt-rareandcollectibledvds-159.jpg?v=1765437492","url":"https:\/\/filmclassicsondvd.com\/products\/death-hunt","provider":"FilmClassicsonDVD","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
