283. Surviving The Game (1994)

June 23, 2014

My friend Jason told me to watch 'Surviving The Game' after I told him about 'Deadly Prey'. It wasn't a terrible movie, although it was a really silly idea. A bunch of rich guys (including Rutger Hauer, Gary Busey, F. Murray Abraham, Charles S. Dutton, and John C. McGinley) hire a homeless man (Ice-T) with no family and no friends to be their guide on a hunting expedition in the mountains. Knowing nothing about hunting or being a guide but willing to take any job he can to try to make some money, Ice-T accepts the position, unaware of the fact that the thing the rich guys are planning on hunting is actually himself, not wildlife. The hunters give Ice-T a head start and then chase him all around the mountainous island trying to kill him, while Ice-T uses his street smarts to stay one step ahead of them. I enjoyed it enough to recommend it.
