- TriviaThe director decided to make this movie after seeing the success of the Italian cannibal movies Río de la muerte, río del amor (1972), La montaña del dios caníbal (1978), and En el infierno caníbal (1977). Some scenes are almost directly lifted from those films.
- ErroresWhen the native is killed by the spike trap, it is obvious that the spikes are rubber because they bend around his body.
- Créditos curiososRight before the opening credits, on screen text reads, "This is a true adventure. Filmed on location in the jungle where the events portrayed actually took place. The production thanks the Indonesian Government for allowing this story to be brought to the screen." Several cannibal films in the era claimed to be accounts of true stories, but this is probably untrue.
- Versiones alternativasThe USA release under the "Tales of Voodoo" label (Volume 2) runs at 84 minutes. All scenes seem to be intact, so the shortened running time is probably due to technical factors.

Opinión destacada
When I first found this film at my local video store I thought it must have been a retitled version of one of the Lenzi or Deodato cannibal films as I had never heard of it before. After watching it I wish it had been.
There is something almost authentic about the Italian cannibal films, where as this comes across as exactly what it is, a cheapo jungle adventure. The natives in this one ham it up way to much in my opinion.
I have mentioned cannibals a few times already, but there is no actual cannibalism in this film(people are speared and taken by crocodiles), although it is mentioned by some characters in the film, it is however in the same vein as the Italian cannibal films. There is of course plenty of violence against animals and some hilariously badly inserted stock footage(very grainy) of a leopard attacking or being attacked by crocodiles and a snake killing a furry critter of some sort.
Some scenes are OK, such as the scenes set inside a cave, where two of the central characters are held captive, being urinated on while trapped in a cage and being forced on to all fours and ridden around like a horse, but in the main it is badly acted and pretty boring.
The version that I saw looked like it was cut, although I would not think that an uncut version would be all that gory anyway as there doesn't seem to be that much opportunity for extreme violence with the situations that are created.
Only seek this one out if you have to see every cannibal(?) movie ever made.
