04/18/2014 Pretty awful jungle picture was only watchable for me because I like Mariette Hartley. the rest of the story about great white hunters in Africa is pretty stereotypical and racist. The film is filled with obvious stock footage and it also sprinkled with Frankie Avalon bursting into song, because jungle adventurers do that, right? See more 03/26/2014 uses alot of stock footage from others, like 'trader horn' and 'mogambo' See more 07/18/2011 the beach folks go to africa for this kinda adventure kinda musical.
