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.

Wikipedia has a decent article on the story:

Did the writers of Predator credit The Most Dangerous Game as their inspiration? It is a different story because Most Dangerous Game isn't just manhunting. There are two elements to it: he captures them and sets them free, then he hunts them. The Predator didn't capture the special forces and release them. He simply hunted them.

Apparently I'm the only one who's seen the 1991 remake "Deadly Game" with Michael Beck, Marc Singer and Roddy McDowell. It's currently not in the movie connections here nor mentioned on wikipedia. It was definitely a step up from Leguizamo's annoying "The Pest," but still nothing special. There's way too many remakes these days, and if past remakes have been any indication, they should just leave this classic alone.
