I remember this flick seen it together with my father somewhere early seventies. I remembered it due one reason, the vow to the sun. Later in the eighties Fields Of The Nephilim used the ritual in one of their clips. So I was searching to see this flick again. Nowhere in my country i could find a copy. But hey, Plex is out here since a few weeks and look, it's on it.
52 years old flick and it still stands. The editing is sometimes stunning for the time it was shot and okay they clearly used stock footage of animals but the overall atmosphere once captured by the natives, the rituals the talking it all still stands. Once the legendary vow to the sun is done it still is nasty and gory to watch.
Another thing for the time it was shot, the natives aren't the bad ones. For me, a cult classic and it still stand strong.
