A friend told me about a movie he watched but couldn’t remember the name. Surely some Doper can help me out.

The move synopsis as related to me by friend:

A group of wealthy men have a lodge in Canada perhaps. Every little bit they kidnap some bum that no one will miss and take him to the lodge. Once there they explain that he’ll be given a head start and then they’ll come hunting for him. If they find him, they kill him. Only this time the bum is some ex-military Rambo super ass kicker and he turns the tables on him. All I know about him is he’s well known and black.

Okay Dopers, what’s the movie.

Please try to hurry, we’d like to watch it while we have dinner this evening.

I Googled “movie men kidnap homeless” and it came right up. Box office flop. Tell us to hurry on something so easy to find… Enjoy your dinner.

There are a LOT of movie variations on “The Most Dangerous Game” and that’s definitely one of them.

Another is Jean Claude van Damme’s “Hard Target.”

While we’re at it, _The Most Dangerous Game_ is pretty damn good. It was _King Kong_’s B-side, but still very, very good.
