Ranger Favored Enemy and Master Hunter (Request for Clarification)

[DBlue]

This actually has to do with the combination of the ranger capstone ability and favored enemies.

Master hunter states in brief that once per day you may force a favored enemy to make a saving throw or die.

What happens when the favored enemy is normally immune to death effects, such as undead or constructs?

Is master hunter a death effect? Would a zombie be immune to this ability? Or is it an exception?

My personal interpretation is that it is an exception. I picture Buffy kicking a stake right into a vampire's heart or Ash decapitating a deadite in one stroke.
