Trivia:
Based upon a true story, the film was heavily criticized by Canadian historians for getting many historical facts and characterizations wrong. moreGoofs:
Anachronisms: While Albert Johnson is making his escape through the forest, a modern highway guardrail appears clearly in the background. These guardrails were not in use during the time of this story, and Johnson was supposed to be out in the wilderness. moreQuotes:
Sergeant Edgar Millen: [about Albert Johnson] As you can see he was one of the American's best trained men. Special Intelligence Squad and the law. moreSoundtrack:

When you look at a lot of the action movies released today, all you can see are special effects. There is usually nothing else going on. When you look at a film like "Death hunt" it's something totally different. Marvin is great and Bronson is fabulous in this action movie set in North Canada in the early 30's. Besides the movie being decent when it comes to editing, directing etc,the two leading men are perfect in this hostile environment that the story is set in. . A must for every fan of a decent action flick. For Bronson fans it's obligatory!
