yes

okay

alright

what's that what does it mean

sounds like a ritual someone's being

sacrificed

uh

bamboo

when i signal fire into the air there

may be trouble

just stay close to sergeant bono

wait here

so

oh

you better take your pictures now before

i burn it burn it an authentic effigy of

the voodoo tiger god it's the only thing

these superstitious natives understand

hurry

bono where'd they come from inga was

mostly a few from neighboring tribes

there's no sense talking to them they're

fanatic blood crazy

one word from a witch doctor and they'd

be up to their ears and voodoo again

finished miss bruce best pictures i've

gotten so far

who's the sleeping beauty

name's wambulu pretty nasty character

but he's wasting his talents on voodoo

he could get rich haunting houses

that looks like a tattoo on his arm

it's a mark of a blood brother navoodoo

cult

listen wambulu you're a troublemaker

we've warned you before stay away from

voodoo voodoo bad medicine

wambula high priest dambulla tiger god

of voodoo voodoo good not bad medicine

it's against the law white man's law the

law of the jungle wambula no only law of

tiger god

your tiger god means only one thing

murder and fear

maybe this will convince you

we'll do the same thing until we wipe

out voodoo take a good look

kind of trigger happy with that popped

one of yours aren't you

how do you mean you could have just as

easily hit me as that knife oh i hardly

think so my friend i seldom miss what

i'm aiming for

gumbulu get your people and get out of

here

my name is peterson abel peterson i'm

phyllis cruz and this is jungle gym

my associates mr michael kovacs mr jerry

masters

we're camped close by the drums kept us

awake so we decided to investigate i'm

glad we did so am i why don't you make

camp with us tonight there's plenty of

room

thanks we will

did you notice that everybody went up

together

well most delicious coffee

woman in the jungle can be a most

decided asset it's the least i can do i

feel like sort of a fifth wheel on this

trip i've been wondering what you were

doing here i'm a research writer for the

british museum

oh chasing witch doctors no

tigers

aren't you looking in the wrong place as

i understand it tigers are found only in

india well there's no argument about

that

but if tigers are indigenous only to

india

why do the native tribes here worship a

tiger god as part of their voodoo cult

primitive tribes that have never heard

of indian or ever seen a live tiger

now either tigers roam this continent

somewhere in the dim reaches of the past

or

or

or the concept of the tiger was imported

along with everything else the white men

brought here very interesting very

interesting indeed at any rate my job is

trying to find out which it is

poor jim here has had me wished on him

by the government i can imagine having

worse things wished on me oh thank you

you mind if i ask what you're doing in

the jungle

not at all

i'm uh sort of looking for a tiger

myself

hunting animals

you might say that what kind the

two-legged variety miss bruce a rather

rare specimen that has so far

successfully eluded capture oh you're an

anthropologist no not really though in

my own way i am sort of a collector

relax it's one of my men probably with a

message

we must be on our way thanks for your

hospitality it's been a pleasure we'll

be moving along ourselves

nice meeting you miss bruce i hope we

see more of each other goodbye mr

peterson good luck with your two-legged

specimen thank you good luck with your

voodoo tiger

i told the passengers about the two-hour

stop over at watusi airstrip to refuel

good don't like it

with plenty of petrol why don't we go

straight through orders the big brass

sitting next to the american army

officer is commissioner kingston we're

stopping to let him pick up another

passenger

instructions right

trans jungle airlines flight 7 calling

watusi

trans jungle airlines flight 7 calling

few minutes better fasten your safety

belts

minute

oh there's our party now come along

major

i see you got my message sorry to take

you off your work but this is important

major green miss phyllis bruce

jungle jim sergeant bono of the police

major green is from the monuments fine

arts and archives branch of the united

states army but don't tell me the

american army is interested in voodoo

major

not that i know of unless it's jet

propelled oh not this variety strictly

four-footed with stripes well miss bruce

how's the tiger research coming oh so-so

there's a fine specimen on that plane

tiger

very well trained too belongs to some

nightclub dancer named

uh oh jim yes commissioner could you

tell me the whereabouts of a man named

werner

carl werner

warner i believe he runs a small trading

post

oh yeah i know him does he live far from

here a few miles could you take us there

in the jeep

little rough road but i think we can

make it good

i hope you know where we are

me i'm lost but good

unless i'm mistaken werner's trading

post should be straight ahead

only a few minutes from here

we leave the native boys here and go on

alone

jim what do you know this man warner

i hardly know him at all

i'm pretty certain he's the man i've

been looking for for a long time

tambour

what are you doing trying to get me in

trouble

hey

what do you want people to think i teach

you to steal

listen to me

put it back here

put it back here

sorry to keep you waiting commissioner

now what can i do for you i'll let major

green explain that major

mr werner we need your help yeah of

course anything i can do

during the second world war the schomon

art collection valued at over two

million dollars was stolen in southern

france and subsequently hidden in

germany

only five men knew where that art

collection was hidden

one of them was an ss colonel in

heinrich schultz

all of the others are dead now as for

schultz he's still at large we want ss

colonel heinrich schultz to show us the

location of that hidden shoamon art

collection

a very interesting story major but i

don't see how i can help you

well i think you can

colonel schultz

forget my amusement major but but this

is ridiculous

i'm a respectable businessman here the

commissioner knows me everybody knows me

where did you think up this preposterous

charge perhaps it isn't preposterous mr

werner

you see we trail schultz to casablanca

then to johannesburg

there he hired a native guy to lead him

through the jungle

that guide has been found mr werner he

has identified you as the man who

employed him seven years ago

the native who has identified me is

mistaken

seven years is a long time there's a

jeep outside and a plane waiting at

wautusi airstrip come with us mr werner

you'll have every opportunity to

disprove the charge

since you claim you're not schultz you

shouldn't have any objections to our

taking your fingerprints to match with

schultz's that won't be

necessary how nice to see you again

major green

pity we have to relieve you of colonel

schultz

but i think it better if he tells us

where the paintings are hidden

who are these men

three of the slickest crooks in the

business

now now major

abel peterson

mike kovacs and jerry masters

specialists in art collections

other people's art collections

easy jerry easy

we don't want to hurt anybody especially

these nice people who only a short time

ago were our guests

perhaps the major is somewhat prejudiced

prejudiced

you're wanted back in the states and the

army kicked you out of germany

you're nothing but a bunch of thieving

scavengers

hmm

oh

hold it

hold it

check that door

it's a storeroom good

the guest of honor is departed and i

think i prefer his company to yours

right now

inside everybody

look here you you can't do it shut up

and get in there

well you heard what the gentleman said

inside that means you too

all right let's get to the cheap

pono

looks like werner got away with the jeep

he's probably headed for the airstrip

it'll take you hours to battle down that

door

you know of a better way

where's this plane going

north and west cairo to casablanca

when do you leave

that's hard to say the chief palace in

the radio room checking the weather

we're ready for another passenger you

said chief pilot

don't you fly this plane of course i'm

the co-pilot

what is this get inside the plane wait a

minute you can't do this get inside the

plane

that you're fine must be test running

the motor

what's going on

a few minutes ago i noticed a man drive

up in the jeep and get in the plane

well there goes 2 million bucks

i don't think so what

we've been chasing shultz for a long

time now the stakes are too high to give

up at this stage of the game but he's in

that plane

what goes up must come down

there are only so many places where

schulz can hide

let's get out of here and back to our

men

oh no

let's try it again i'm ready

let me help you

they must have taken a jeep and headed

for the airstrip

change your course fly inland i can't do

that there isn't a landing field inside

our cruising range change your course

but it's suicide to go that way my

friend it's suicide for me to go any

other way change your course

well dollar signals warner's on that

plane there's something wrong that plane

is flying in the wrong direction it's

headed inland instead of up the coast

we better get to the airstrip

foreign

hanzo

banjo

wow

hey

numbers

what's up

well jim what do you think

well according to the radar report the

plane crashed in the jungle somewhere

near crescent valley crescent valley

isn't that the heart of the voodoo

country where the headhunters live

that's right miss bruce it's called the

valley of headhunters even if they live

through the crash it's a safe bet

they'll never survive the headhunters

with werner one of the passengers we

won't be the only ones looking for

survivors

you can bet your life that peterson and

his boys will have the same idea

spotting a plane from the air in that

jungle is next to impossible jim will

you lead a search party you can take

sergeant bono with you

yes in case we do locate werner the

major here can come along too and miss

bruce

well you're not going to leave me here

my miss bruce it's him you commissioner

kingston the foreign officer sent you

specific orders to one of my requests

did it not that's right miss bruce this

is my request i insist on going along to

crescent valley

jim

jim i'm

i'm sure it'll be all right

i think i'm going to like you major

green

do i go or don't i

okay miss bruce you asked for it

i'll make arrangements for supplies

sergeant bono yes sir

let's go

repeated aerial searches have failed to

reveal the exact location of the crashed

plane

it is known only that the commandeered

transport came to earth somewhere in the

vicinity of crescent valley

as was reported earlier commissioner

kingston announced from nairobi that a

searching party under the leadership of

jungle gym has been organized and will

move overland in an effort to locate any

possible survivors

from england comes news at the house of

commons

well

he's here now

i understand you can lead us into

crescent valley

what about the headhunters

me

voodoo blood brother the chief of

headhunter tribe

white men safe with me good we leave for

the valley at once wait a minute

peterson what about this searching party

we've been hearing about all day on the

radio major green will be with them yeah

and if they get their hands on shultz we

can really kiss off that money no worry

about other white people what jungle gym

lead government search party so

only one way into valley of headhunters

dundee pass we get there first

when jungle gym come

no worry

well it would seem our friend jungle jim

has a few enemies among the natives but

we're wasting valuable time let's pack

our stuff and go

so

don't they ever get tired of beating

those drums jim

in the jungle drums are newspapers radio

telephone and western union all wrapped

up in one

what are the drums saying jim voodoo

talk all about a great tiger god you

mean the stuffed idols no this one's

real a real tiger

jim that's a break i've been looking for

a real tiger take it easy this one came

out of the sky according to the drums

out of the sky

all right that's great they must meet

the tiger that's on the plane with

werner the train tiger that the

nightclub dancer used in her act

shalimar of course that's right

if the tiger got out alive there's at

least a chance that the passengers

escaped could be jim we're on the right

track yes but we're not alone what do

you mean what's left of this campfire

there's another safari on the trail

headed the same way yes i've been

noticing tracks for miles they're about

a day ahead of us headed for dundee pass

in crescent valley

peterson and his men no doubt about it

from here on we keep our eyes open

let's move on

was right

with dundee past the only entrance to

crescent valley all we have to do is

close the door behind us and mr schultz

will be all ours yeah and two million

dollars worth of paintings if schultz is

still alive you're so very right masters

if mr werner alias schultz is still

alive

wambulu tell your men to be careful this

is a tripwire connected to dynamite

anyone entering the pass is a very

unpleasant surprise in store for them

about 50 tons of rock good i thought

you'd be pleased a sort of present for

your friend jungle jim put some of your

men on top of the cliff if any of jungle

gym safari gets through the explosion

tell your boys to make them wish they

hadn't

wambula understand i'll bet you do all

right jerry

mike finish covering this wire

when we're through we'll enter the

valley

wait a minute jim

something strange about this place i

don't know what

it's so quiet

yes it's too quiet that means trouble

why

when wildlife leaves it means people

have been here

and may still be here

oh no you take the safari up the path

slowly where are you going jim

the top of this cliff i want to take a

look around

so

so

another voodoo blood brother greetings

from mr peterson

where's tamba

there he is

i wonder what he got into now

stay here

don't do that you don't want to play

with that

here play with it

i watch

give me your hands

more greetings from mr peterson dynamite

oh he'd stop at nothing

including murder

two million dollars i guess he figures

it's worth it

a couple of more minutes we'll be in

crescent valley let's go

we wait here

so

that must be shalamar's tiger we're

getting close

wow

now

wow

set up camp here and wait for me you'll

follow the tiger

we're in the valley now and head out in

country

stay close to bono and the natives i'll

be back soon

tamba

we go now

um

uh

how deep is it out there shalamar it's

over my head

hey

get out of there there's a buffalo

coming

i can't

uh

wait wait here bansalagona

the head hunters go quickly

now without you no they're only going to

take me back to their village i'll be

safe with them please go

see i'll come back for you later

hello

wow what a beauty

she must be the dancer on the plane with

werner yeah just like money in the bank

ah

uh

so

did you talk to the chief

like tickling a rattlesnake under the

chin

wambula managed to save our necks but he

couldn't spring werner where's werner in

one of the huts good

that mr masters is debatable the chief

said we could spend the night here but

in the morning we must leave without

werner and suppose we don't

these natives aren't particular they'll

even cut off empty heads

or would you rather join the major in

his lady

stay here tim until i come back

humbly

what are they gonna do to us get back

over there

hey

pick

jambola

up

release those people right away

cut them loose

um

the united states army to the rescue

welcome to our little jungle paradise

fellow prisoners i take it the hoochie

cooch dancer and a tiger saved your

heads too at least we caught up with you

a lot of good it will do you here

you must be the pilot

from the other passengers on the plane

that's right outside the natives obeyed

that girl why

it has something to do with shalamar's

tiger the natives worship it believe

it's a reincarnation of their own voodoo

god what about shalimar herself well the

native thinks the girl is some kind of

uh voodoo princess she even has to take

part in their heathen ceremonies dancing

to an idol

why haven't you tried to escape because

we're very closely guarded that's why

like you are now like your voodoo

princess is

maybe she's prevented human sacrifice so

far but the natives don't like it

so what colonel schultz the end of what

little power she has should come soon

now

well what's so funny about that to me

everything is funny there's little to

choose between

a trial for my crime or the quick knife

of an african headhunter

jim

have you ever heard of a voodoo trial

yes it's a fight to death between a wild

animal and an unarmed man you can thank

that white man peterson for this i'm

sorry but i couldn't stop it

tomorrow morning you'll be placed in a

closed-in pen

unarmed to face a wild lion

you'll have to fight it barehanded

if the lion kills you

we'll all be sacrificed to the voodoo

gods

if you win

we go free

you believe that

no i don't

whether you win or whether you lose

by this time tomorrow we'll all be dead

uh

drums go

dance

so

hey

oh

oh

foreign

hey

echo

don't move till i get the others loose
