the most dangerous game (1932)


aka The Hounds Of Zaroff.
"The world is devided into two types of people, the hunter and the hunted. Luckily i'm the hunter and nothings gonna change that!"
Bob Rainsford (Joel McCrea), is a big game hunter, and sole survivor of a ship wreck, making land on an island owned by Count Zaroff (Leslie Banks). There he finds four more people from a previous wreck, including Eve (Fay Wray). Whilst playing the genial host Zaroff reveals he also has a passion for big game hunting, and it soon becomes clear what Zaroff really likes to hunt, humans!
A slow start gives way to a thrill ride ending, and entertains all the way through.
