"The Most Dangerous Game"
By Richard Connell
Adapted and directed by Gary Lamb
With Gary Lamb, Bill Mendieta, Saige Spinney, and Matthew Williamson
A big-game hunter from New York City falls off a yacht and swims to what seems to be an abandoned and isolated island in the Caribbean, where he is hunted by a Russian aristocrat. This short story from 1924 was inspired by the big-game hunting safaris in Africa and South America that were particularly fashionable among wealthy Americans in the 1920s. "The Most Dangerous Game" is much more than a hunting story -- the suspense keeps building until the very end.
