Kino Lorber have confirmed that they are preparing a Blu-ray release of director Don Medford's western
The Hunting Party (1971), starring Oliver Reed, Gene Hackman, Candice Bergen, Simon Oakland, and Ronald Howard. The release is expected to arrive on the market this summer.
Synopsis: Nobody steals from Brandt Ruge-...and lives. With a stellar cast led by Oscar® winner Gene Hackman (Unforgiven), Emmy winner Candice Bergen (Murphy Brow) and Oliver Reed (Gladiator), this searing western fires round after round of emotional heat with a torrid frontier love triangle that can only lead to revenge.
To cattle baron Brandt Ruger (Hackman), his beautiful wife Melissa (Bergen) is just one of his possessions. So when notorious bandit Frank Calder (Reed) kidnaps Melissa, Ruger isn't concerned about her - he's enraged that someone stole from him. Melissa finds her captor quite kind, but Ruger is organizing a posse to hunt down the pair and recover his property-dead or alive!
