Review of Mystery of the Black Jungle

American (I suspect TV) version of a German film, which I saw in black and white and which was filmed in color. As far as I can tell from comments elsewhere on the web there are a couple different versions of this film some with narration and some with out. the version I saw was narrated and had a long explanation of events that makes me think that the film was much longer than the hour and twelve minutes of this version. The plot has something to do with a great hunter falling in love with a girl who was kidnapped by members of the Thuggee cult in India. He tries to rescue her but is captured and then he makes a deal to win his freedom but in the process gets captured by British authorities who then use him as a guide since the girl is really the kidnapped daughter of a British officer. And if you think I'm giving too much away understand that that is about the first fifteen minutes of the film. Its an okay film but so much is going on and its so chopped up in the editing that it will make your head spin. I would love to know how long this film really is and what its really like. Its best described as the sort of Euro-trash film that used to play late at night on the Late Late Show because no sane mind would run earlier than 2am. In a weird way I'm in love with the film because its clearly a mess and not what was intended.I want to know what was intended. Worth a look for those who miss the Euro-trash of yesterday or for those who are curious about how movies can be cut up and repackaged. Those looking for an okay adventure can give it a shot should they run across it on TV.
