When Sanger Rainsford falls off his yacht on his way to the Amazon forest for a hunting expedition, he washes up on a strange Caribbean island only to find that more danger lies ahead.

Inspired by the big-game hunting safaris that were quite popular among the wealthy class during the 1920s, “The Most Dangerous Game” combines a dangerous plight and a battle of wills between two very experienced hunters with two very different motivations.
