Summary:

A sadistic truck driver kidnaps a prostitute who is addicted to drugs.

While the setup effectively establishes the characters and their motivations, the narrative quickly devolves into a sequence of increasingly sadistic and degrading moments, each more disturbing than the last. The events that unfold are intense, the build-up to the finale is relentless, and unfortunately, the anticlimactic ending is a letdown. That said, The Bunny Game does excel in several areas, particularly its striking black and white cinematography and the strong performances from its two leads, Rodleen Getsic as Bunny and Jeff F. Renfro as her tormentor.

Despite its positive aspects, there are numerous challenges that viewers may encounter, which ultimately restrict its potential appeal. Whether it be the sparse use of dialog, total disregard of character backstories, or its inability to make its protagonist Bunny sympathetic… And let’s not forget the extreme visualization of violence that occurs for the majority of this film. Ultimately, The Bunny Game is a film that defies classification, only recommended to fans of transgressive cinema.

Jinga Films Ltd. gives The Bunny Game a solid audio/video presentation.
