Good concept, poorly executed.

Strong acting helps the film overcome an uncertain premise and create characters that hold our attention absolutely.

A film of deceptively outspoken contemporary relevance, this is cinema at its most alert, alarming and alive.

Story: It's very simple but honestly that is fine.

The adventurer Clint (Roger Browne) travels across Borneo with a bunch of rogues and geologists on the search for a diamond mine. In the middle of the jungle, they meet a beautiful woman called Samoa (Edwige Fenech). Hardly a surprise that Clint falls in love with Samoa, but trouble with the natives begins when the diamonds are found because diamonds are holy stones to them.This is a typical jungle adventure going by the unwritten book of rules. I'm sure you have seen several other movies already where a jungle queen rules over a secret kingdom and greedy men are disturbing the peace when they are looking for gold, ivory or diamonds. Same old song here, nothing particularly bad about it, but nothing good that needs to be mentioned either. Except of course Edwige Fenech who looks gorgeous in whatever she is almost wearing.

This is a very lame jungle adventure movie with no real jungle feeling to it and the plot is deplorable (a bunch of whites rob jungle natives of their diamonds and shoot dead dozens of natives like flies on the way as a white jungle girl who has been living among them collaborates in all this atrocity because she fallen for one of the guys), but Edwige Fenech completists might nevertheless like to check it out as it is one of her earlier starring roles (before becoming the queen of Italian crime thrillers). For the record, she is scantily-clad (but never nude, at least in the tv version I watched) and, yes, very beautiful.
