Now if you thought the "Land That Time Forgot" was cheap and cheerful (and it sure was) then this one must have been done on a shoestring. It is a howler of a film with Patrick Wayne and Sarah Douglas on the hunt for a missing explorer (Doug McClure). They find him and together with a preposterously eccentric Thorley Walters try to escape from the evil Samurai-esque tribe (who seem to have their own, rather bizarre, theme music) who want to sacrifice them. Whereas the other three films in this "series" were fun and had a little panache, this just has bleak scenery and a plot that your average 5 year old could come up with.
