Trivia / The Most Dangerous Game

• Completely Different Title: For the film:
  • Brazil: Zaroff, the Hunter of Lives
  • Germany: Count Zaroff-Genius of Evil
  • Spain and Portugal: The Wicked Zaroff
  • France: The Hunts of Count Zaroff
  • Poland: Count Zaroff
  • Finland: Zaroff's Dogs
  • Japan: Bizarre Island
  • Turkey: Human Hunter
• Life Imitates Art: It's not uncommon for a given Paintball Episode to imitate the plot, that's because the entire game was inspired by the story in the first place!
• Referenced by...:
  • Grant Morrison's Action Comics: The new character Nimrod, in addition to being a biblical shoutout, is named Zarov. This being an accurate rendition of a male Russian's surname as opposed to Zaroff.
  • Poptropica. Survival Island (particularly Parts 4 and 5) is based on The Most Dangerous Game.
  • Rayman 3: Hoodlum Havoc has Count Razoff, also an Egomaniac Hunter who practices Hunting the Most Dangerous Game.
• Similarly Named Works: Should not be confused with the 1964 novel by Gavin Lyall of the same name.
• Tyop on the Cover: In France, the movie was initially released as La Chasse du Comte Zaroff (The Hunt of Count Zaroff). Upon re-release, the title was accidentally made plural, becoming Les Chasses du Comte Zaroff (The Hunts of Count Zaroff); the mistake stuck, and most releases and listings since use the plural title.
