Based upon the ever-popular short story by Richard Connell, The Most Dangerous Game remains a hugely influential masterpiece 90 years after its release.
Big game hunter, Bob Rainsford (Joel McCrea), barely survives a shipwreck in shark infested waters and washes ashore on the private island of the sinister Count Zaroff (played with a delightful zeal by Leslie Banks). Zaroff fancies himself an accomplished hunter also -only his preferred quarry, is man!
Taking full advantage of the lavish jungle sets created for King Kong; The Most Dangerous Game was filmed at night after filming for Kong had concluded for the day, with many cast and crew pulling double duty on both productions. After 90 years, it is still a thrilling piece of filmmaking - filled with stunning production designs, wonderful optical effects, and-of course-thrilling action. The Masters of Cinema Series is proud to present The Most Dangerous Game in its UK debut on Blu-ray, from a 2K restored scan.

Superb release of an extremely influential classic
Terrific to finally see this masterpiece on bluray. The film has influenced everything from the Hunger Games to Zodiac and this influence is much discussed on the disc's special features particularly by Kim Newman. An essential purchase for all cinephiles

The Most Dangerous Blu-Ray!
I saw this movie a while ago and really enjoyed it. It’s only an hour long but it’s a great adventure story. Great to see looking great on blu-ray and this edition is fantastic with some really good bonus material.
