Scavenger Hunt
An eccentric games inventor dies and leaves behind an inheritance worth hundreds of millions of dollars - which will only be given to the person or team, amongst his family and hired help, who wins a madcap scavenger hunt.
Critics Sentiment
Five teams form and receive scavenger hunt lists
Stuart gets roughed up by Scum's motorcycle gang
The film drops significantly from the early team formation excitement (7.1) to the cruel motorcycle gang beating (4.2), showing how the comedy crosses into mean-spirited territory
Scavenger Hunt starts promisingly with Vincent Price's setup and ensemble cast appeal, but suffers from uneven pacing and humor that ranges from harmlessly silly to genuinely offensive. While some physical comedy sequences like the museum heist and lab flooding work well, the film's tendency toward cruel humor and exhausting chaos prevents it from maintaining consistent entertainment value throughout its runtime.
