Man-Eater of Kumaon is a 1948 American adventure film directed by Byron Haskin and starring Sabu, Wendell Corey and Joanne Page. The film was made after the success of the Jim Corbett book Man-Eaters of Kumaon, published in 1944.
The film was not based on any of the stories of the Corbett's bestselling book, but used a fictional plot. The film was a box office flop, although some interesting footage of the tiger was filmed. Corbett is known to have said that "the best actor was the tiger".
Plot
Dr. John Collins visits India, where he learns from native couple Narain and Lali during a tiger hunt.
