Podcasts about The Most Dangerous Game

It's a mix of two-handers, adaptations, comedy, mystery, and horror with my favorite Suspense shows from 1945! Joseph Cotten is hunted by J. Carrol Naish in "The Most Dangerous Game" (originally aired on CBS on February 1, 1945), and William Bendix hunts for a missing necklace in "Pearls are a Nuisance" (originally aired on CBS on April 19, 1945). John Payne is a small town police chief in hot water in "Two Sharp Knives" (originally aired on CBS on June 7, 1945), and J. Carrol Naish is a blind cobbler with an ear for murder in "Footfalls" (originally aired on CBS on July 12, 1945). A customer from hell may run Joseph Kearns out of business in "Short Order" (originally aired on CBS on August 16, 1945), and a monster from hell may destroy the world - and Ronald Colman - in "The Dunwich Horror" (originally aired on CBS on November 1, 1945).

With Dexter Resurrection on the horizon, we thought it would be fun to drop our coverage of New Blood for anyone who is watching for the first time or rewatching before the big premiere! -- The BingetownTV crew is back and we are covering Dexter: New Blood episode 3! The anxiety is building up episode after episode! Dexter has to figure out how to be a father to Harrison while at the same time dealing with a CSI genius and canine Units on his tail! Harrison stands up to the jocks in a big way & we find out he's probably a genius. There's also a “The Most Dangerous Game” situation going on in this small town! Tune into our episode to hear our thoughts and theories!!!

Primal Games was a long journey to get to screen. Written and directed by David Ryan Keith, this film marks his first full action film. We follow Ben and Sarah on their honeymoon camping trip that quickly turns dark. They become prey to a sadistic hunter, and from there it spirals into a wild version of The Most Dangerous Game. A lot of talking points here for lessons, not the least of which is how to keep an action film entertaining without bogging it down with needless plot points and protracted story. Another excellent movie by David and crew, it really shines with fantastic lessons. It's also just a great watch. Primal Games can be rented or purchased on various platforms.

Join me on a trip back to 1943 and my favorite episodes of Suspense from that year. It was the year production of the show moved from New York to Hollywood, which meant it was easier for film stars to make appearances, and it picked up a sponsor in the form of Roma Wines. We'll hear Maureen O'Hara as a debutante turned detective in “The White Rose Murders” (originally aired on CBS on July 6, 1943), and Warren William reprise his big screen role as The Lone Wolf - a reformed jewel thief turned sleuth - in “Murder Goes for a Swim” (originally aired on CBS on July 20, 1943). Agnes Moorehead cements her status as the “first lady of Suspense” in the legendary “Sorry, Wrong Number” (originally aired on CBS on August 21, 1943), and Orson Welles plays a hunter who tracks human prey in “The Most Dangerous Game” (originally aired on CBS on September 23, 1943). Finally, Charles Laughton is a patriarch whose family reputation may be sullied by murder in “Wet Saturday” (originally aired on CBS on December 16, 1943), and Peter Lorre finds his foolproof murder scheme had an unexpected complication in “Back for Christmas” (originally aired on CBS on December 23, 1943).

These teens are being hunted! Can they survive... the hunter's BLOODLUST?! We find out in this 1961 adaptation of Richard Connell's THE MOST DANGEROUS GAME, from writer/producer/director Ralph Brooke. The film stars Wilton Graff, Robert Reed, June Kenney and Gene Persson.

In this riveting episode, Stuart and Jacob dive into the treacherous waters of "The Most Dangerous Game," comparing the original 1932 classic with its 2022 remake. They explore the differences in acting choices, set design, and how the adaptations of the original short story go about their storytelling. And they just can't help but rip into the 2022 version for its questionable production choices and baffling plot decisions. How do the character arcs differ? Is the villain more menacing in the original or the remake? And what on earth happened to the budget of the newer version? Join the duo as they present the pros and cons (mostly cons) of attempting to tell the story of this timeless tale.Also featured in this episode are even more thoughts on Scorsese movies in a non-Scorsese episode, and even a surprisingly revelation about the production of the 2022 film!

Jodie and Andrea watched “Croak,” episode seven of season three of Yellowjackets, and there's a lot to talk about.In 1996, someone gave Jeff Winger a crossbow, and thank the dirt for that.

In our search for more knowledge about the horror genre, the films we love, and the people behind them, many horror fans began their journey with reference books. Long before the internet, these books served as stepping stones, introducing fans to films they had never heard of and offering deeper insight into the people behind the movies they already knew and loved. It was like opening doors for the first time—or pushing open ones that had only been slightly ajar—allowing us to explore and learn so much more. In this episode, we welcome author Bryan Senn to the show to discuss these essential reference books. With over three decades of experience writing about sci-fi and horror in a variety of magazines—not to mention his own books on multiple subjects—Bryan brings a wealth of knowledge to the conversation.

Book Vs. Movie: Meet John DoeThe 1922 Short Story Vs. the 1941 FilmFrank Capra's 1941 film *Meet John Doe* is often described as “based on a story by Richard Connell and Robert Presnell.” Unlike Connell's famous short story, “The Most Dangerous Game,” the source material for *Meet John Doe* was based on a short story, “A Reputation,” which appeared in 1922 in Century Magazine.  The original work and the final film critique how newspapers—and media moguls—shape public sentiment for their own purposes. Starring Gary Cooper and Barbara Stanwyck, the film was a significant box office success and received an Academy Award nomination for Best Story, with Capra opting for a more hopeful ending than the original. So which did we prefer?

Join Josh, Jason, and Adam as they discuss how hunting is portrayed in movies. The hosts talk about how hunting can be a metaphor for power and how it is often used as a way to show that a character is upper class. They also discuss how the social strata of the hunter is often reflected by the prey they select.After the hunting discussion, Jason leads a review of The Legacy of a Whitetail Deer Hunter. This 2018 Netflix film stars Josh Brolin as Buck Ferguson, a famous hunter who takes his son, Jaden, on his first deer hunting trip.

Richard Connell's 1924 short story, "The Most Dangerous Game," continues to haunt and inspire filmmakers nearly a century later. Its chilling premise of a wealthy sportsman hunting humans for sport has resonated through decades of cinema, influencing countless horror and thriller narratives. Join Kyle and his subjects, Pete, Kynan, and Tommy, as they embark on a thrilling exploration of this enduring tale and its impact on modern film.This episode of "Sitting in the Dark" focuses on three distinct cinematic interpretations of the "man hunting man" theme, each offering a unique perspective on the source material. The discussion begins with "The Hunt" (2020), a big-budget action thriller starring Betty Gilpin and Hilary Swank. The hosts dissect the film's controversial reception, its exploration (or lack thereof) of class warfare and political commentary, and the effectiveness of its fast-paced, often brutal action sequences. They debate whether the film's slick Hollywood production enhances or detracts from its core message.Next, the group turns to "Get Duked!", a British horror-comedy that subverts expectations with its unique rhythm and youthful energy. The hosts praise the film's performances, its exploration of class dynamics, and its ability to make the vast Scottish Highlands feel terrifying. They also highlight the surprising subplot involving a local DJ and his unexpected audience.Finally, the discussion shifts to "Run Sweetheart Run," a film that tackles the horrors of being a woman in a world of toxic masculinity. The hosts commend the movie's refusal to be voyeuristic in its depiction of violence against women, while debating the effectiveness of its supernatural elements. They also explore the film's themes of privilege, survival, and the societal constraints faced by women.Throughout the conversation, Kyle and his co-hosts offer insightful analysis and personal reflections on the enduring appeal of the "hunting humans" narrative. They examine how these films tackle issues of class, gender, and power dynamics while delivering thrills and scares. The episode serves as a thought-provoking exploration of how a nearly century-old story continues to shape and inspire modern horror cinema.Film SundriesRead The Most Dangerous Game by Richard ConnellWatch the movies discussed:The Hunt: Apple • Amazon • JustWatchGet Duked: Apple • Amazon • JustWatchRun Sweetheart Run: Apple • Amazon • JustWatch (00:00) - Welcome to Sitting in the Dark (03:46) - The Most Dangerous Game (08:21) - The Hunt (26:50) - Get Duked (41:39) - Run Sweetheart Run (01:11:17) - Coming Attractions Learn how to support our show and The Next Reel's family of film podcasts by becoming a member.

On the latest episode of The Tactical Leader Podcast, Jack Carr, former Navy SEAL, best-selling author, and host of the Danger Close podcast, shared his incredible journey from military service to becoming a top-tier author in the world of thrillers. Carr's reflections highlight the value of building upon a foundation established by previous generations of authors while adapting to today's constantly evolving media landscape.Jack Carr is a former Navy SEAL who served for 20 years, transitioning from military operations to becoming a successful author and podcast host. His military experience, particularly in tactical operations and leadership, deeply informs his writing, lending authenticity to his thrillers. Carr's time in the Navy SEALs laid the foundation for his post-service career, where he draws on his battlefield experiences to create compelling, action-packed stories. His journey from elite military service to top-tier author showcases his adaptability and commitment to excellence across different fields.Building on the Legacy of Great AuthorsCarr emphasized how crucial it has been for him to recognize and build upon the literary foundations laid by iconic thriller authors. "I'm not just regurgitating things—I'm building off the foundation that's been built by all these other authors," he explained. He cited classic stories like *The Most Dangerous Game* and *Rogue Male* as significant inspirations, but it didn't stop there. Carr outlined a timeline of influences, including legendary figures like Ian Fleming, John le Carré, Robert Ludlum, Tom Clancy, David Morrell, and Nelson DeMille.Carr acknowledges that the works of these authors have allowed him to forge his own path. "These guys gave me this foundation by writing such amazing books, and I build on that," he said, adding that he's taken lessons from the past and applied them to modern-day storytelling in a way that honors those who came before him.The Importance of Adapting to the Battlefield of MediaOne of Carr's unique insights in the podcast was how the modern publishing environment requires authors to adapt to new challenges, much like a battlefield. "You couldn't have done what I'm doing now back in 1985," he said, reflecting on how digital platforms, podcasts, and social media have revolutionized the way creators can engage with their audience.In Carr's early career, traditional book tours and limited media appearances were the main avenues for engaging with readers. Today, authors like Carr have an abundance of ways to connect with fans, express gratitude, and contribute value, whether through social media interactions or hosting podcasts. “You might just want to write the book, and that's wonderful. But for me, I need to build a readership,” Carr shared, explaining his motivation to create content beyond just writing novels.This approach is more than just business—it's personal. Carr, who has a middle child with severe special needs, shared that the financial responsibility of caring for his family drives his efforts to engage with his audience consistently. "For me, thanking people, being authentic, and adapting to this new environment is just as important as writing the books."From Page to ScreenA particularly exciting moment of the conversation came when Carr recounted the story of how his book The Terminal List was adapted into a major television series. As he was writing the book, Carr imagined Chris Pratt playing the lead role, even though Pratt was then known primarily for comedic work on *Parks and Recreation*. After Pratt's transformation in Zero Dark Thirty, Carr saw him as the perfect actor to embody the main character.It turns out that Carr's intuition was spot on. Through a fortunate series of connections—thanks to a friend, Jared Shaw—Pratt ended up...

Can a movie be better than the story it's based on? Let's take a journey from short story to Academy Award Nominated film, today on The Classic Tales Podcast. Welcome to The Classic Tales Podcast. Thank you for listening.  The Vintage Episode for the week is “The Bottle Imp”, by Robert Louis Stevenson. Be sure to check it out on Tuesday.  If you have found value in the show, please consider becoming a monthly supporter. Help us to help other folks like you. Please go to http://classictalesaudiobooks.com and become a monthly supporter today.  Classic Tales for Children: Volume 1 is now available. It includes the new recording of Pollyanna, bundled together with Winnie-the-Pooh, The Wind in the Willows, and Alice in Wonderland. I thought of titles that would really go well together, so I pulled out all the stops. This anthology is perfect to listen to again and again. You can pick it up at classictalesaudiobooks.com by following the link in the show notes.  https://store.classictalesaudiobooks.com/classic-tales-for-children-volume-1-p366.aspx Ok, off the top of your head, what movies are better than the books they are based on? Whenever I consider this, I tend to come back to The Wizard of Oz and Ben-Hur. I think in these two instances especially, they expanded on the original material beautifully, to fit the medium of film. It's a transformative process, to move from story told only in print, to a story told by actors, artists, costumers, directors, set designers, stunt people, special effects artists, and all the other hundreds of people it takes to make a motion picture. I recently discovered I'm going to have to add the film Meet John Doe to my list.  Meet John Doe is a film released in 1941, directed by Frank Capra. It stars Gary Cooper, Barbara Stanwyk and Edward Arnold. It was nominated for an Academy Award for Best Story, and it was ranked No. 49 in the American Film Institutes 100 years, 100 cheers list. It entered the public domain in 1969, and you can watch it for free many places on the internet, also on Amazon Prime. The film is based on the story “A Reputation”, by Richard Connell. Connell also wrote “A Friend of Napoleon” that we've heard recently, and is most famous for his short story, “The Most Dangerous Game”.  So first, let's hear the story “A Reputation”, and then look at what elements were modified and expanded on to create the acclaimed motion picture, Meet John Doe. Just a heads up – this story deals with suicide. And now, “A Reputation”, by Richard Connell.

Book Vs. Movie: The Most Dangerous GameThe 1924 Short Story Vs.The 1932 Movie"The Most Dangerous Game" is a short story by Richard Connell, published in 1924. It follows Sanger Rainsford, a big-game hunter who ends up on an isolated Caribbean island. There, he meets General Zaroff, a hunter who has grown bored with traditional games and now hunts humans. Zaroff gives Rainsford a choice: be hunted or join in the hunt. Rainsford refuses and becomes Zaroff's next target. Rainsford uses his wits and survival skills to evade Zaroff and his assistant, Ivan, over several days. The story climaxes with Rainsford confronting and defeating Zaroff, suggesting he feeds him to his own hounds."The Most Dangerous Game" is a 1932 pre-code film adaptation of Richard Connell's short story, directed by Irving Pichel and Ernest B. Schoedsack. The movie stars Joel McCrea as Bob Rainsford (the protagonist) and Leslie Banks as Count Zaroff (the antagonist). Fay Wray and Robert Armstrong also appear in significant roles. The film is notable for its suspenseful atmosphere, tightly paced plot, and the effective use of its jungle setting, which was shared with the production of "King Kong" (1933).

The true Hero of the Working Man makes a friend as we review "Captive Pursuit"! In a future where every copy of "The Most Dangerous Game" was destroyed, Chief O'Brien and his new Gamma Quad drinking buddy engage in a bit of light murder, but are  the real criminals the costume department?

In this bonus episode, I'm sharing my favorite Suspense shows from the 18 appearances Joseph Cotten made on the program. The star of Shadow of a Doubt and The Third Man plays both heroes and villains across these six episodes. First, he's searching for his missing wife in "You'll Never See Me Again" (originally aired on CBS on September 14, 1944), and he's hunted by J. Carrol Naish in "The Most Dangerous Game" (originally aired on CBS on February 1, 1945). After an impulsive murder, Cotten has to reverse engineer an alibi in "Crime Without Passion" (originally aired on CBS on May 2, 1946), and he's haunted by a corpse no one else can see in "The Thing in the Window" (originally aired on CBS on December 19, 1946). A case of mistaken identity and a long-suffering wife have Cotten in the vise in "The Day I Died" (originally aired on June 30, 1949), and he's got to clear his name after he confesses to a murder he didn't commit in "Fly By Night" (originally aired on CBS on September 28, 1950).

Based on the short story by Richard Connell, The Most Dangerous Game, tells the tale of a hunt for the deadliest animal of all...man! Through swamps and jungles...hunter against hunted. Originally aired in the early 1040s, our version takes this adventurous story and brings it to new life! Our version of Live Radio Theater is a little bit different than what you may be thinking though. This is our attempt to pay homage to the golden age of radio theater. We found copies of classic radio shows and have recorded them in our own special way. Library patrons came together to read scripts and added sound effects using items we found around the library! Maybe we used a book for door slamming or a cookie sheet for thunder. We've tried to recreate sound just like they would have used way back when.

We Welcome to another exciting episode of the 3 Geeks Podcast!

We've got two stars for the price of one in each of these Suspense shows! For this bonus episode, I'm sharing my favorite installments of "radio's outstanding theater of thrills" that featured a pair of big name stars at the microphone. J. Carrol Naish and Joseph Cotten are hunter and hunted in "The Most Dangerous Game" (originally aired on CBS on February 1, 1945) and Hume Cronyn and Keenan Wynn hope a big bet will bail them out of trouble in "Double Entry" (originally aired on CBS on December 20, 1945). Vincent Price joins Lloyd Nolan on a "Hunting Trip" (originally aired on CBS on September 12, 1946) and walks the streets of London with Claude Rains in "The Hands of Mr. Ottermole" (originally aired on CBS on December 2, 1948). Finally, Fibber McGee and Molly are joined by an armed and unwelcome passenger in "Backseat Driver" (originally aired on CBS on February 3, 1949), and Phil Harris and Alice Faye try to escape a small town's harsh justice in "Death on My Hands" (originally aired on CBS on May 10, 1951).

For this episode of "Making Movies Great Again," Sebastian and Chris Kohls, AKA "Mr. Reagan," review the 1932 classic "The Most Dangerous Game," from its revolutionary cinematography to the numerous influences it has had on our popular culture almost 100 years later.Support the show: https://www.sebgorka.com/See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.

CLICK HERE for the full episode Show Notes on the blog. Highlights Sara explores the definitions of a classic and a modern classic book. We talk about separating the American literature canon from the idea of a classic. Sara talks about being free to define classics on personal terms. The idea of a book being labeled a “future classic.” Now-famous books that went unnoticed initially when they were released. Sara's personal reading motivations. Common issues people have when trying to tackle classic books. Notable quirks of many classics that were first published as serials. Tips and advice for approaching older books. Addressing the pressure surrounding reading or revisiting classics. Examples of nonfiction classics. Legal considerations for all those retellings. The rise of retellings as a trend with today's audience. The difference between retellings and fan fiction. Sara's recommendations for accessible classic literature. A different approach to finding the right retelling for your reading. Please note: Sara mistakenly mentions during the discussion that The Great Gatsbydid not come into popularity until its distribution to soldiers during World War I, when this actually occurred during World War II.

Jake Johnson's new directorial debut SELF RELIANCE draws from a deep well of “Most Dangerous Game” storytelling, but its interest in murder-for-sport as televised entertainment combined with its rom-com underpinnings put us most in mind of 1965 cult oddity THE 10TH VICTIM. Elio Petri's film functions as a piece of pop art first, a satire second, and a romance a distant third, and this week we're attempting to parse it on all three levels, when we're not getting sidetracked by the many incidental details comprising this inconsistent, perhaps incoherent, but always interesting film. And in Feedback, a listener prompt about whether movie ratings are a net negative for film culture inspires us to do a little self-reflection, and institute a new (temporary) NPS ratings system.  Please share your comments, thoughts, and questions about THE 10TH VICTIM, SELF RELIANCE,  or anything else in the world of film, by sending an email to comments@nextpictureshow.net, or leaving a short voicemail at (773) 234-9730.

Henry, but he went through a huge transformation before he became the character widely known today.  The Cisco Kid is not a beloved character in his first appearance in today's story, first published in 1907. Nope, he's a vicious killer. However, by the time of his third feature film, The Old Arizona in 1927, Cisco was revamped as a witty Mexican hero, winning the Oscar for Best Actor for Warner Brothers – the second ever given! Nearly thirty films were produced with the character, along with 156 television episodes produced between 1950 and 1956.  But in today's story by O. Henry, Cisco is a duplicitous scoundrel. The kind that can't be killed. And now, The Caballero's Way, by O. Henry.
