One of my all time favorites.

It's not great by any means, but it's a pretty good movie that didn't leave me filled with regret for investing time in it.

If you're interested in the topic at hand, you should just watch it and judge yourself because the reviews have gone very biased by people that didn't even watch it and just hate (or love) the creator. I liked it, it was well written, narrated, and directed and it was about a topic that interests me.

This movie feels like it was made purely to piss off people who want good shows

Currently only the American version of the film can be found. But back in the 90's there was an extended version of this film shown in Europe on TV. The film is pretty much the same as the American version except there is a longer sequence of the infamous oiling scene. The oiling scene in the American version is only a minute long but in the European version it's a few minutes long. Kathy Shower is carried away to the tribe chief's hut (as in the US cut) but in this extended version you see Kathy being undressed by the native women in front of the chief's mother. Kathy's belt, boots, trousers and shirt are removed as the chief's mother inspects her. The scene then cuts to Kathy being held down and oiled up naked by the native women (again like in the US version) but in the European cut we see more of Kathy being oiled up. We see the native women hands going aggressively between Kathy's legs rubbing quite hard with Kathy's hips responding by grinding back vigorously. There is also more breast rubbing action with the chief's mother kneading Kathy's breasts, squeezing them hard with some nipple tweaking and pulling. In this extended scene we can hear Kathy getting really turned on as she is worked up into a frenzy with Kathy making sex noises, which is also missing from the US version. This version is no where to be found but maybe someone has got a copy of this elusive version of the film.

The Further Adventures of Tennessee Buck is a 1988 action/comedy film starring David Keith, Kathy Shower and Brant von Hoffman. The movie begins with millionaire hunter Ken Manchester (Hoffman) and his new wife Barbara(Shower) floating down a river in Borneo on their way to their honeymoon safari. In the village where they are to meet their guide, they come across "Tennessee" Buck Malone (Keith), a once legendary hunter now down on his luck.In the village, an elephant goes on a rampage, nearly killing Barbara. She is saved by Buck, who shoots the elephant; only problem being that the elephant falls on and kills the Manchester's safari guide. Buck is arrested for shooting the elephant, and the Magistrate gives Buck a choice. Pay a fine that is so high that Buck can't possibly come up with the money, or give the Magistrate a talisman that Buck wears around his neck; the Magistrate covets the charm, but Buck refuses to give it up. Fortunately, Ken comes to the jail and offers to pay Buck's fine in exchange for Buck taking the couple on a safari. Buck reluctantly agrees.Buck and his assistant, Sinanga, fly the couple to a location where a tribe that Buck is friendly with give them shelter and guides for the safari. The next day, they fly to a remote spot to begin hunting, only to discover that a rival tribe has expanded it's claims into the territory where they are hunting. Before they can escape, the party is ambushed, and Buck, the Manchesters and Sinanga are taken prisoner. The chief of the tribe is the son of the chief whom Buck befriended years earlier. On seeing the prisoners, the chief wants two things: Buck's talisman and Barabara Manchester. He is thwarted for two reasons: To get the talisman, he either has to kill Buck or Buck has to give it to him. The Chief, however, is constantly put off by his mother, who also recognizes Buck and loudly reminds the village of how Buck had saved them all. As for Barbara, the chief cannot have her while her husband, Ken, lives.The chief, desiring Barbara, has her taken to his hut to be prepared by the village women to be his new wife through a special oil rubdown. There, she is held by two jungle women while the chief's mother rip opens Barbara's shirt exposing her breasts. The mother then strips Barbara completely naked, removing her shirt, belt, trousers, boots and pants as Barbara struggles feebly. After the stripping Barbara is pinned down onto a wooden bed and the native women rub oil all over her body. The chief sets Ken loose, with the idea that Ken will try to escape, and the chief's men will hunt him down and kill him. Buck persuades the chief to also set loose Sinanga. Buck warns Ken to follow Sinanga's lead, but Ken refuses to take orders from a native. Ultimately, Ken runs the wrong way and is killed by the chief's men. The chief later presents Barabra, who is sitting naked in a hut, with Ken's head. According to tribal law, she is now his, and he rapes her. Buck, hearing her screams, realizes that his plan has failed.Buck is later set free by the chief's mother, who gives him a machete as a weapon. He sneaks into the chief's hut and frees Barbara, but before they can sneak out, Barbara grabs a spear and stabs the chief, wounding him. Buck and Barbara race through the jungle back to Buck's plane, where they find Sinanga hiding. They escape, but before they leave, Buck circles the plane and drops his talisman into the young chief's hands. Sinanga begins to explain about Ken's death, but Buck tells him he has no need to explain.THE RUBDOWN SCENEThe rubdown scene is considered by many viewers to be the highlight of the movie. In this scene, Barbara has been stripped naked by the women of the tribe, and forced to lay down on a bed of animal skins. While she is held down, the women rub oil all over her body. The scene begins at Barbara's feet, where two women are oiling up her legs. The camera moves upwards and we see another tribal woman rubbing oil onto her abdomen. Finally, the camera moves to Baraba's head and torso, where one woman is rubbing oil onto her breasts, while another woman holds her down by pinning her arms. The scene is repeated, this time with cutouts showing the tribal women's faces as they give Barabara her rubdown.

this was an unexpected delight, as a well crafted "b movie" with a delicious playmate, classic jungle adventure plot an a sense of humor in spite of thin finances and straight to video release. oiling Kathy before her confrontation with her jungle natives fate is yummy an extended with the director knowing what will entertain his audience. The natives are near nude and seem quite authentic, an used to the jungle and nudity. Shot on an Indian ocean island, the director used the hired natives to great advantage. I've loved jungle movies since the first Tarzan i saw, and this is not a cheap Ramar of the jungle quickie, but something for the 2nd on a twin bill in the fifties. "tarzan and his mate" had beautiful nudity, as a loinclothed Maureen O'sullivan dressed for her mate and a hot steamy jungle, which produced a very modern sexual content to a "black white oldie". The hayes office was not amused an it was heavily censored. But i digress, an highly recommended a very good "b movie" with humor, sexy actors, and an interesting plot.

It's "Indiana Jones" meets "Bikini Car Wash Company," or something like that. Doesn't do either well enough to recommend -- except for a single memorable scene in which Shower is rubbed down by the natives (a la Bo Derek in her Tarzan bomb) and then "taken" by the chief.
