* EvilIsCool: As terrible as he is, Zaroff is undeniably the most interesting character in the 1932 film, helped by Leslie Bank's performance and the fact that everyone else is pretty much a vanilla cast in comparison.

** In the 1932 film, [[AristocratsAreEvil Count Zaroff]] is an EgomaniacHunter who grew bored with big game, and decided to [[HuntingTheMostDangerousGame go after humans instead]]. To this end, he periodically shifted signal buoys to cause ships to wreck on his island, and takes any survivors to hunt, ostensibly letting them go if they evade him until sunrise. Before the hunt, he locks his victim in his trophy room for a few hours so the victim will be scared enough for a sporting chase. When [[ActionSurvivor Sanger "Bob" Rainsford]] becomes his latest foe, he threatens to make [[DistressedDamsel Eve Trowbridge]] into his sex slave if he wins. After Rainsford wins and he and Eve escape the island, Zaroff tries to shoot them both, showing that he has no honor at all.
