In walks Carter offering her the chance to win $100,000 if she participates in the hunt on his island. She soon finds other women who are there for the cash have been tied up, only to be released as the hunted. With the help of Tessa and Lexi, Cassandra turns the tables on the men showing that women can be better hunters.

Keith Leopard, President of Uncork’d Entertainment, stated, “We’re tremendously excited to be releasing this very hot tale of survival and revenge, with its thrilling premise and an extraordinarily gritty performance by Mena Suvari in the lead role. “The action doesn’t stop. I’m quite eager for genre aficionados to see it.

“This picture was different from some of my prior efforts, as it dealt more with stunts and adult themes,” director Blake-Thomas continued. It was a lot of fun collaborating with stunt coordinators, stunt doubles, and performers who performed their own stunts. Being exposed to the type of dancing that goes along with stunts was a fresh experience that I am glad to add to my directorial toolkit.

Leopard of Uncork’d and Lipper negotiated the agreement on behalf of the movie crew.
