Plot

In this elaborate spoof of "The Most Dangerous Game", Rory Calhoun guest stars as celebrated big game hunter Jonathan Kincaid. Bored with merely tracking down animals, Kincaid has arrived on the island in hopes of bagging the "biggest game" of all--specifically, he wants to add a human being to his trophy room. Naturally, Gilligan is chosen as Kincaid's quarry: If he can remain alive for 24 hours, he and the rest of the Castaways will be rescued and taken home. . .but if he doesn't, Gilligan will very likely be stuffed and mounted along with the rest of Kincaid's victims! Harold Sakata, best known as "Oddjob" in the James Bond flick Goldfinger, appears as Kincaid's brutish assistant Ramoo. ~ Hal Erickson, All Movie Guide
