Fangs, Fury and War: ‘Operation Blood Hunt’ is Your Next Thrill Ride on Lionsgate Play

World War II gets a supernatural twist in Operation Blood Hunt, where werewolves bring the terror. Experience heart pounding thrills with this horror flick soon to premiere on Lionsgate Play.

Set on a remote South Pacific Island in 1944, Operation Blood Hunt dives headfirst into the supernatural and doesn’t hold back. At the centre of the chaos is Reverend Conte, a hard-drinking occult expert (because why not?), who teams up with a ragtag crew of military rejects to uncover the mystery behind the disappearance of a Marine unit. The initial theory? Taken out by the Japanese Imperial Army, they got to them. The shocking truth? Werewolves. That’s right — lycanthropes are the real menace.

Leading the charge as Reverend Conte is Golden Globe winner Jonathan Rhys Meyers (The Tudors, The Survivalist). Joining him are the former UFC light heavyweight champion and actor Quinton “Rampage” Jackson (The A-Team), the fierce Sonia Couling (The War of Flowers), and Louis Mandylor (My Big Fat Greek Wedding), who also directs this thrilling adventure. Whether you’re a horror fanatic or just fancy watching werewolves wreak havoc, it’s time to hit play on Operation Blood Hunt.

Ready to join the chaos and uncover the blood-soaked truth? Don’t wait — stream Operation Blood Hunt, coming to Lionsgate Play on the 17th of January.
