Review of The Most Dangerous Game (1932) by Chris B — 08 Dec 2011
While not as grand a production as "King Kong", that was shot at the same time but took another year due to editing and the ground breaking special effects, pushing It's release to 1934. "The Most Dangerous Game" utilized not only many of the stars and cast; including the producer, composer, and director but also the same set as well! Having seen the original "King Kong" recently it was fun seeing the set being used for another film.
The sets were extravagant and contained enough variety to add to both films and not make either feel restrained or repetitive. While critically, and in my opinion, "King Kong" is by far the bigger and superior film, "The Most Dangerous Game" is a fun and highly entertaining adventure/horror film that is timeless.
The themes are deeper than the film fully explores but It's a wonderful watch and at 62 minutes it flies by thanks to the suspense. Highly Recommended!
