Free and with a new restoration just for Night Flight fans!
"Back in the old daze Stuart Samuels and I played around with editing down PD classics so that we could actually watch them. With the editor and Night Flight long time fan Pleasant, we have produced Jungle Woman and even did a little up res. I thought this would be a fun digital perk for our subscribers.
If you like it happy to make many more." - Night Flight Founder Stuart Shapiro
Bill Phillips, his wife, Tom Guardia and a group of adventurous land developers from the Pan American Highway Commission make their way through the unfriendly jungles of Central Panama (where white men not welcome.) Bill tries to gain the trust of the dangerous Cuna tribe, so he and Eve live amongst the natives and participate in their ritual ceremonies and drink jungle moonshine. Meanwhile Guardia and the others confront a hostile tribe of headhunting jungle women, are savagely tortured and sacrificed (this footage was added to the documentary style travelogue to liven things up a bit.) Needless to say, the Highway Commission finds an alternate route through the defiant jungle.
