Plot: A man discovers the lighter side of being hunted down like an animal in this manic comedy. Pestario Pest Vargas (John Leguizamo) is a low-rent con man from Miami's South Beach who has fallen deeply in debt to ill-tempered members of the Scottish mafia (complete with kilts). Desperate to raise $50,000 to stave off having his legs broken (and possibly turned into haggis), Vargas takes an offer for a very high paying one day job from Gustav Shank (Jeffrey Jones), a German businessman visiting Florida. However, it's not until later that Vargas finds out what Shank has in mind. The lunatic white supremacist Shank transports Vargas to his island compound, Little Germany, and announces that he will hunt him as wild game. If Vargas can survive for 24 hours, he gets the cash; otherwise, his head will join the others stuffed and mounted on Shank's wall. Can Vargas' speed, agility, and gift for cheesy impersonations save him now? John Leguizamo co-wrote The Pest's original story, loosely based on the classic adventure tale The Most Dangerous Game. ~ Mark Deming, All Movie Guide

Ace ventura on speed!
Added 8/14/2009

Im mostly into hilariously comedy movies like any of mel brooks's movies and this is far my most favorite movie. John leguizamo was a laughing riot of bugs bunny in this movie who will make alot of people laugh out loud til they cry and jefferey jones was more like elmer fudd even the plot is so wacky AKA bugs bunny meets ace ventura.

If your into wacky movies like ace ventura then this movie is for you.

What is wrong with you people?

How could you enjoy this movie? How? I mean, I know little known films like this are more likely to get reviewed by fans, but seriously? 5-stars? This film is horrible. If you're brain-dead, but not racist, you'll be offended. If you're racist, but not brain-dead, you'll be bored and annoyed out of your mind.

Here's a good test: Could you sit in front of a TV and watch 2 hours of old bigoted cartoons that they don't show anymore and be amused? If yes, get this movie. If not, avoid at all costs.
