A South American plane loaded with an assortment of characters crash lands in a remote jungle area in the middle of a storm. The passengers then discover they are in an area inhabited by vicious cannibals and must escape before they are found. A remake of Five Came Back (1939).

本片背景在二次大战前夕，德国货轮艾根号由澳洲监管下逃出，只求全舰平安返乡，结果却被德国塑造成海上英雄，最后被纳粹政府当饵，成为英军追击目标。本片情节丰富，演员的表演出色，但拍摄手法欠缺新意。
