Hunting Season

This animated horror-comedy follows Randal Graves and Dante Hicks, two pop-culture obsessed convenience store clerks, as they are forced to confront their past when a vengeful zombie horde, composed of their former customers and acquaintances, attacks their hometown. The duo must team up with their stoner friends Jay and Silent Bob to survive the onslaught and find a way to defeat the undead before they are overwhelmed.

Hunting Season received a mixed to negative reception from critics, who often cited its crude humor and low-budget animation as detriments, though some appreciated its self-aware and fan-service heavy approach. Audience reception was similarly divided, with long-time fans of Kevin Smith's View Askewniverse generally showing more favor towards its nostalgic callbacks and irreverent tone.

• Fans of Kevin Smith's earlier work may find some enjoyment in the returning characters and familiar humor.
• The animation quality is frequently criticized as being amateurish and detracting from the viewing experience.
• The film relies heavily on inside jokes and references, which can alienate viewers unfamiliar with the View Askewniverse.
