Classic horror thriller directed by Irving Pichel and Ernest B. Schoedsack. Big game hunter and author Bob Rainsford (Joel McCrea) is the only survivor of a shipwreck and, while swimming to safety, he realises the ship was deliberately led off course.
Stranded on a remote island owned by the sinister Russian Count Zaroff (Leslie Banks), Bob meets other previous shipwreck survivors including Eve Trowbridge (Fay Wray). Fellow hunter Zaroff only has one prey in mind and, when Bob and Eve find his trophy room full of human heads, Bob becomes the object of his next hunt and must fight to survive.
