Overview

The lovely Laura, on a modelling job in South Africa, is kidnapped by a gang who carry her off into the jungle from where they demand a huge ransom. Two men set off in a helicopter to rescue her, little knowing what horrors Laura is enduring in the meantime in the savage clutches of a primitive and bloodthristy world. Laura’s rescuers not only have to face the cruel violence of her captors - but also the horrifying lust for blood of a primitive and cruel god.

Viewing Notes

My twilight viewing turned out to be Jess Franco’s Mandingo Manhunter a.k.a. Devil Hunter (1980). Not a very good cannibal flick that teeters between disgusting and boring. Never been a fan of cannibal flicks from this time period so several of them I haven’t seen. This is another example as to why I’m not a fan. 4.5/10
