Movie Info

After a small plane crashes in the jungles of South Africa, its surviving passengers struggle to find their way back to civilization. Devious Brian O'Brien (Stuart Whitman) puts himself in charge of the group, which includes divorcée Grace (Susannah York), mining engineer Bain (Stanley Baker) and German-born Grimmelman (Harry Andrews).

Audience Reviews for Sands of the Kalahari

  • Sep 24, 2014
    Starts well but becomes endless and then limps along to a pointless conclusion. Whitman, clad for most of the film in nothing but tiny cutoffs, is impressively fit.
