Generally, I think it deserves to be remade. Just look at it. It's screaming to be remade.

I remember that episode of "The Hulk!!!"
Let's not forget the episode of Matt Houston where our hero is hunted by superkiller Chuck Connors in an abandoned amusement park!!!

I would like it also. I liked the movie, and I LOVED the short story. Only problem is that thet would have to stretch it to make it run full length.

Hey Lady, this has been remade many times including "Game of Death" and "Run for the Sun". It has been remade more than most flix and "Run" is not bad at all with Trevor Howard as the villain!

I would like to see this movie remade. But I like it to be exactly as the short story is, not any different. I really dont like it when they chage the stories because the writer had a reason to write the story as it is!

maybe not as a feature. Connell's story is 8000 words, a short written for a pulp magazine. Any screen feature would have to expand on it to some degree, flesh out the characters, add dialog, etc.
That a screen adaptation is not sufficiently like the original material is a very common complaint, but it really reveals a lack of understanding of what has to go into screenwriting. We have to be content with an
adaptation
which will never be the same as the original, but the best adaptations capture the flavor of the original in a new medium.

For the light-hearted, "The Pest" with John Leguizamo was a pretty funny take on this premise.
I also love "Surviving the Game".

My thoughts exactly! There was a 1932 version, but I never saw it! But Hey! if you ever find out of someone who wants to re-make this movie- or already has plans to do so, from the short story that bears the same name please tell me! (Goodness- let me know! GRIN I'd love to start a discussion about it and definitely offer any help I can with making it!)
Just a thought.
God bless!

I just saw this parodied on Codename: Kid's Next Door .. and I think it was also done on Dial M For Monkery (Dexter's Lab anyone?) .. what? Cartoons pwn.
Anyhow, I have a feeling that at the rate remakes are going nowadays, it'd take a really talented director to pull off a good remake. I'd say Peter Jackson, maybe, but something feels off about saying that ..

David Fincher could do it.

There was also a variation on The Most Dangerous Game in an episode of Get Smart in the 1966-67 season. Harold Gould played Hans Hunter who hunts down homo sapiens for sport on St Germain island. In the beginning of the episode he hunts down a man, kills him and ships his body to Washington in a crate. Agents Smart and 99 go to the island and are hunted and almost killed. The way it was filmed was unusually suspenseful for what was supposed to be a sitcom.
