There's a whole genre of these movies/stories.   "The Most Dangerous Game" is one of the earliest I think.    Also, "Hunting Accidents" were a fairly common way for old timey aristocrats and elites to either kill themselves to evade some form of looming public disgrace or for certain troublesome members of the upper social echelons to be taken out by their own. Not much of a leap to speculate they use organized hunts for other forms of in-group control and social bonding.
