A Bad Hunt (Besmenian: Eine schlimme Jagd) is a 1967 horror film adapted, produced, and directed by Helmut Rommel, based on the 1935 novel Forest Cannibals by Sigmund Scharf. The film contains many bloody scenes of violence and many moments of shock, as a result of which the film was described as "too crass" at its premiere in 1967. The film was banned in Besmenia itself from February 1968 to March 1999.
Plot
The film is about the two young married couple Tom Meyer, Ursula Meyer and Adam Holzmann, Larissa Holzmann, the four of them are going on a camping holiday in the deep forest.
