A little Haiku to start us off. *Clears throat* Taika Waititi’s Hunt for the Wilderpeople On The Movie Cal... And, er, that’s it for the Haiku portion of the description for this episode. Now onto the main event. HUNT FOR THE WILDERPEOPLE follows the story of 13 year old Ricky Baker who has a chance at a new life with a new family out in the New Zealand wilderness with a loving foster family until tragedy strikes and he’s forced to go on the run with his gruff Uncle Hector. As you’re about to find out this is a film that we both adore - a bit of a theme for this series - and we’re so excited to share our thoughts with you. So make some sausages, get your hot water bottle and come on a journey of discovery into Taika’s brilliant New Zealand comedy. It’s the most skux film on The Movie Calendar. Episodes with just our faces can be found on YouTube.
