Synopsis:
In 1907 a nurse with anti-malaria medicine is taken up the Congo river by a white hunter, who has designs of his own on the country's precious metals.
Review:
Filmed on location in the Belgian Congo, this Fox production looks good but unfortunately becomes bogged down in conventional jungle excitements, and the 'missionary nurse redeems predatory male' story is too flimsy to convince.
