Fast forward twenty years to the Sixties and two fisted adventurer Michael Dudikoff is looking for a lost Inca city in the Amazon head waters where all kinds of strange things have been happening to the natives. He kills a Swiss investigator and his SS backer Donald Pleasance he merely wounds in a rather stupid double cross. Those concentration camp inmates, wonderful subjects for experimentation are going to become unavailable shortly and he wants to continue his research. A Mengele like scientist played with relish by Robert Vaughn as the Allied armies are closing in on both sides of Nazi Germany has to flee. It's almost like a bad serial without as many chapter breaks. This is a style of film making not seen since the pleasant days of Republic and Monogram Pictures were active. I'm sure that the original novel by Alistair McLean was a whole lot better than this film would indicate.
