The film was followed in 2013 by a sequel entitled ''The Deadliest Prey'', in which Hogan is released from prison and goes back to running his deadly training course, only this time his mission is more personal. He again kidnaps Danton and places him in a forest filled with cameras, planning to broadcast the hunt all over the internet. Danton must then deal with a larger and more powerful mercenary unit lead by Hogan and his powerful new ally.

** There appears to be almost no screening process for the men they kidnap for their target practice. The first man we see is a pudgy, winded guy in a tattered suit who can barely defend himself. What use is it to kill people who are easy to follow through the woods, are unarmed, and even easier to kill? Wouldn't it make more sense to kidnap capable people to challenge the mercs and force them to think on their feet?

Hiding his wife in that one obvious spot is what led to Thorton capturing her and then [[spoiler: killing both her and Cooper.]] The army had no clue where they'd gone, given their large headstart when Danton and Cooper returned for his wife.
