Скачать или смотреть Hard Target: When the Hunted Becomes the Hunter | The Gritty '90s Action That Exposed a Sick Game

What if the most dangerous predator isn't an animal, but a man with a wallet and a thirst for cruelty?

In the gritty streets of 1993 New Orleans, a down-on-his-luck sailor named Chance Boudreaux (Jean-Claude Van Damme) steps in to help a woman named Natasha Binder (Yancy Butler) who is searching for her missing father. What starts as a simple rescue mission quickly spirals into a nightmare. They uncover a secret, high-stakes operation run by the ruthless Emil Fouchon (Lance Henriksen) where wealthy clients pay to hunt the ultimate prey: homeless veterans.

This is "Hard Target"—the explosive Hollywood debut of legendary director John Woo. It's more than just a showcase for Van Damme's iconic splits and high kicks; it's a tense action-thriller that pits one man's conscience and combat skills against the cold, calculated evil of those who see human life as sport.

This video dives into the making of this cult classic. We'll break down:
