- Crazy creditsNear the end of the credits, jungle noises resume.
- SoundtracksThe Rite of Spring: The Augurs of Spring, Dances of the Young Girl
Composed by Igor Stravinsky

Featured review
It's got everything in a Jungle exploration movie.
This is my first review, since IMBD existed.
This is NOT Raiders of the Lost Ark.
But; It has Cannibals and Piranhas!
It moves at a leisurely pace and will not make you sleepy. Unless you're really tired already.
Very well done and acted!
I'm not going to ramble on like 90% of these so called reviewers.
It's worth the watch.
