| Storyline It begins with a bunch of pretty girls doffing their “primitive tribeswoman” costumes to bathe at the base of a jungle waterfall. (This being a movie from the height of the Suharto era, all the nudity is optically fogged on top of the visual distortion created by the water itself.) A voiceover that sounds tantalizingly like John Ashley explains that the dense rainforests of the Indonesian archipelago harbor tribes that have never made contact with the outside world— which in this case means even the other stone-agers in the next valley over, let alone representatives of modern civilization. Ashley (or whoever) goes on to say that among those hyper-isolated peoples, rumors have begun circulating of a mysterious and powerful young woman whom some believe to be a goddess, or at the very least an emissary of same. How Mr. Voiceover would know what un-contacted savages are gossiping about is beyond me, and apparently beyond the screenwriters, too. In any case, the annoyingly blurred skinny-dippers quickly find themselves menaced by a deadly stock-footage crocodile! Luckily for them, their plight is observed by a vine-swinging, Tarzan-hollering girl kitted out in a slightly different interpretation of Stone-Age Chic. Presumably this is that messenger of the gods we were told about. Jelita dives right into the pool to grapple with the croc , and her victory so impresses the bathers that they resolve at once to bring her home with them to meet the whole tribe. |
