'''''Night Hunter''''' is a 1996 ActionGenre {{horror film|s}} starring Don "The Dragon" Wilson.

Jack Cutter is a vampire hunter. Skilled in many forms of combat, he is a bane to creatures of the night the world over. There's just one problem: He's the LastOfHisKind, and the undead outnumber him significantly. After he kills a few bloodsuckers in LA, he's on the run from the police and other vamps. Can he survive when he's outmanned and outgunned?

Not to be confused with 2019's ''Film/{{Night Hunter|2019}}'' or ''Film/TheNightOfTheHunter''.
