"The Most Dangerous Game" (also known as "The Hounds of Zaroff") is a short story by the American author Richard Connell, first published in Collier's magazine in January 1924.Sanger Rainsford, a hunter of big game from New York, accidentally falls from a yacht just as it's sailing past a certain large Caribbean island with a sinister reputation. Managing to swim ashore, he finds a big mansion occupied by Zaroff, a bored old Russian general, who describes his one true passion: hunting. The general further tells Rainsford that he has grown bored of hunting animals, and only enjoys Hunting the Most Dangerous Game of them all: humans. (The story's title carries a double meaning, referring both to a "game" or contest between the general and his quarry, and to "game" in the sense of an animal that is hunted.) And Rainsford has just become his next prey.The story has been directly adapted for film at least eight times, though only twice under its original title: in 1932, starring Joel McCrea as Rainsford and Leslie Banks as Zaroff, and in 2008, with Brian Spangler-Campbell and Mark Motyl, respectively. However, it has been imitated by a vastly greater number of works, and is the source and Trope Namer of the Hunting the Most Dangerous Game plot. Zaroff, a 2019 Franco-Belgian graphic novel, continues the story with Zaroff as the Villain Protagonist facing off a against a group of Irish Mafia hitmen lead by a previous victim's daughter.The full original story can be found here. | |

Hotter and Sexier: The film, compared with the original story. Sexual deviance is a major theme of the pre-Code movie. Check out the look of naked lust that Eve gives Rainsford while Zaroff is yammering on in the lounge room. | |

There Are Two Kinds of People in the World: Or rather "classes," regardless of species: the hunter and the hunted. Both Rainsford and Zaroff start off with this philosophy, but while Rainsford means humans are the hunters and animals are the hunted, Zaroff includes humans in the latter category. | |

Good Scars, Evil Scars: Zaroff has a large scar on the side of his skull, attributed to an encounter with a Cape buffalo. In Real Life, Leslie Banks was permanently disfigured fighting in World War I. The original short story makes mention of that specific hunt having resulted in the fracturing of Zaroff's skull, so logically, there would be such a scar. | |

No Challenge Equals No Satisfaction: The whole purpose of both the story as well as the trope in general. The villain is a big-game hunter who got bored with dumb animals and started hunting humans who could present more of a challenge. Then he finds another almost equally-bored big-game hunter who would be even more of a challenge than random sailors who don't know how to really fight back. | |
