Slow pace in the most part of the movie.

Sick Product of a Sick System

It's entirely possible that sending the audience out feeling lousy was intentional

The movie turns out to be a little better than the average. Starting from a romantic formula often seen in the cinema, it ends in the most predictable (and somewhat bland) way.

Like 'Mondo Magic' this was a bit too gross and won't become too many folks' favorite.This is like 'Africa Addio' except without a lot of the colonial violence. Most of this violence is either self-inflicted or natural.Is it watchable? Only if you're a fan of this genre. If you're not...stay FAR away.The home style surgery scenes will make anyone squirm.And running the risk of sounding insensitive...some of those natives were UGLY.The Castiglionis were just following the Mondo footsteps laid for them by Jac and Pros. Again, only if you're a fan.

This film makes an indelible impression in content, subject matter, and cinematography. Documentary film making at its best as it narrates very exotic and esoteric rituals of the primitive peoples of Africa. The visual body of the film is extremely potent that its images mute any narration or interpretation. Not recommended for the prude, narrow-minded, and nauseous.
