Former Okeefenokee Swamp general manager Dave DaLie dreamed up and stars in this bare-bones 1960 jungle adventure made in Guatemala by German-born Mexican actor Fernando Wagner (The Wild Bunch), who also appears. DaLie is "great white hunter" Mr. Samson (!), whose sultry sweetheart Morena (Angélica Morales) is whisked away by ritual-crazy jungle dwellers who practice human sacrifice. This is revealed in an extended flashback featuring actual members of the Vicuni tribe along with California's Linda Cordova (1961's The Long Rope) as their curiously placid victim. A heftier DaLie later wrote and appeared with songster Baker Knight in the southern drive-in curio Swamp Country (1966).
