Prey for the Hunter

This adventure is yet another adaptation of Richard Connell's enduring 1924 tale The Most Dangerous Game. The tale is set in contemporary times and centers on four bored business executives who are looking to do something a little more exciting on their latest African excursion than shoot mere animals. They begin by luring an innocent, unemployed journalist into playing a little mock hunting game using paint pellets for bullets. At first all involved are using phony bullets, but then, the group leader, Eric Du Pont, quietly loads real bullets into his gun and begins killing the others one-by one, leaving the survivors to begin blaming the journalist who must now run for his life.
