Line 2:
A group of teenagers vacationing in the tropics takes a boat out to a seemingly deserted island. They soon find, however, that the island is inhabited by a wealthy recluse (Graff) and his staff. While their host is initially hospitable, he quickly reveals his true purpose: to [[Hunting the Most Dangerous Game|hunt down and kill each of his visitors]], as he has done with everyone unlucky enough to set foot on his island.

{{tropelist}}
=== This film contains the following tropes: ===
* [[Action Girl]]: [[Zig -Zagging Trope|Zig-zagged]]; Betty can flip an attacker effortlessly so long as there's a [[No OSHA Compliance|conveniently uncovered vat of acid]] for him to land in, but she spends just as much time acting the [[Distressed Damsel in Distress]].
* [[The Alcoholic]]: Tony, the kids' boat pilot
* [[Chekhov's Skill]]: Betty's judo training.
Line 12:
* [[Gorn]]: The shot of Balleau impaled through his throat and wrists is quite shockingly graphic, especially for being shown on TV.
** Or it ''would'' be if the spikes coming out of Balleau lined up horizontally, [[Special Effects Failure|as they did before he was impaled.]]
* [[Hoist Byby His Own Petard]]: Balleau is impaled on the display rack he had purposed for the heroes.
* [[Hunting the Most Dangerous Game]]: Well... [[The Most Dangerous Game|duh]].
* [[Made of Iron]]: Balleau's henchman survives being [[You Have Outlived Your Usefulness|abandoned in leech-infested quicksand,]] and later shrugs off multiple point-blank gunshots when [[The Dog Bites Back|killing Balleau.]]
Line 21:
* [[Wax Museum Morgue]]
* [[What Do You Mean Its Not Symbolic]]: Balleau is impaled on the display rack he had purposed for the heroes... through his hands, in a classic Crucificion posture.
* [[You Have Failed Me...]]: happens to both Balleau's primary henchman and to Tony the boat pilot {{spoiler|who is paid by Balleau to bring him hunting victims}}.
