The Naked Prey

1965 · 1h 36m · Adventure, Thriller

IMDb 7.3 Metacritic 64 RT 86%

If you're craving a taut, stripped-down survival thriller with genuine stakes and no Hollywood safety net, YES—this 1966 Cornel Wilde classic is a relentless hunter-vs-hunted chase that strips away dialogue and leans entirely on visceral tension and landscape. Skip it only if you need constant dialogue or can't handle a film that treats its premise with grim seriousness.

Plot

A group of men are on safari. One of the party refuses to give a gift to a tribe they encounter. The tribe is offended, seizes the party, and one-by-one, kills all but one of the safari members in various creative and horrifying ways. The last surviving member is given "The Lion's Chance" by the tribal leader to be hunted down by a party of tribal warriors.
