 In this episode, we're cracking open the not-so-well-preserved corpse of Bloodlust (1961), a film that dares to ask the question: “What if rich guys hunted people and everyone was just kind of chill about it?”

Before The Most Dangerous Game had a Hulu reboot and before “eat the rich” became a social media aesthetic, there was Bloodlust, a charming little moral play wrapped in B-movie gauze. Directed by Ralph Brooke and shot in six days, Bloodlust is what happens when you give a borrowed island set, some aspiring actors, and exactly one vat of dry ice to a guy with a grudge against socialites.
