The Most Dangerous Game is an outstanding film, not only because of how good the actual movie is, but because it presented a theme that has been rehashed again and again in various films ever since. That theme being class warfare. And not just metaphorically, but the actual hunting of the poor by rich individuals with simply too much time on their hands. The Most Dangerous Game has been remade so many times I’d challenge anyone to try and keep count. But rather then do that, I’ve done my best to try and find the worst remake of The Most Dangerous Game. It seemed more sporting that way. That’s why next week I am reviewing Escape 2000. Though our international readers might know it better by its original title, Turkey Shoot.

    The original short story it is based on is terrific…I have yet to see the movie but thanks to the reminder it’s now on my To View list.

    I have to admit I have a soft spot for one of the umpteen variations: “Surviving the Game”, starring Ice T! I am lame, yes.

    Surviving the Game was a fun one and one of the more enjoyable variations of the theme. I haven’t watched it in ages though so I worry about how well it has aged. Hard Target is one I used to enjoy quite a bit but time hasn’t been very kind too.
