Breakston English jungle safari adventure thriller ("They lived hard... and loved savagely, braving every danger to carve a new frontier!"; "Conquering the world's last wild frontier!"; "Filmed entirely in outdoor Africa"; "Primitive love... awakened on Africa's forbidding Veldt."; "SEE...

Note that this English movie was made in 1954, and by all accounts, it is a very tame movie, without much sex or excitement. In 1956, "Majestic Productions" released it in the U.S. under the title "Outlaw Safari", which was pretty misleading, but then the next year, AIP picked it up and re-titled it yet again to "White Huntress", and had a striking image of a pretty blonde woman with a knife entangled by a deadly python, and not only was this incredibly misleading as to what the movie was about, but it also references a scene that never occurs in the movie (pretty typical of AIP at this time!). If you know who did the art (if any), please let us know. Important Added Info: Note that this poster was folded at one time but has been laying flat for a long time and will be sent rolled in a tube. Condition: very good to fine.
