What ‘Run Hide Fight: Infidels’ Teaches Hollywood—and Us 

On Sept. 20, The Daily Wire released its new movie “Run Hide Fight: Infidels.” Daily Wire, a conservative media company based in Nashville, produces a variety of podcasts, television series, and full-length motion pictures. Without a Hollywood budget, Daily Wire ventures into waters no other filmmaker dares.  

Daily Wire podcast host Matt Walsh has made two documentaries: “What is a Woman” in 2022, which revealed the contradictions of gender ideology, and “Am I a Racist” in 2024, where, with his signature irony and wit, Walsh gives woke “antiracists” enough rope to hang themselves.  

Daily Wire also made the film “Lady Ballers,” in which a group of men decide to identify as women for the purposes of winning basketball games—a ridiculous premise now playing out in real life as former NBA players Enes Kanter Freedom and Royce White declare for the WNBA draft.  

Daily Wire’s first “Run Hide Fight,” released in 2020, was about a mass killing in a high school. The 2026 sequel, “Run Hide Fight: Infidels,” is about a mass terrorist attack at a fictional college in Virginia. The state is a fitting choice, as the home of an ultra-woke governor, Abigail Spanberger, and prosecutor, Steve Descano, who releases criminals without bail and has dropped charges against illegal immigrants—at least one of whom later allegedly committed murder. 

The plot of “Run Hide Fight: Infidels” is simple: Islamic terrorists invade a college campus, kill dozens, and take hostages to obtain the release of their leader. He had been captured in Somalia years earlier by a former Delta Force captain, who happens to be speaking on campus that very day about the threat of Islam to the West. The captain, a few plucky students, and a chunky wit of a security guard arm up, form a ragtag A-Team and save the day.  

The film is a sort of 1980s mash-up of a college dorm movie like “Revenge of the Nerds” with a straight-to-video Van Damme action flick. Remember those quotable ’80s lines? “I’ll be back.” “Welcome to the party, pal.” “I ain’t got time to bleed.”........
