A shipwreck strands a modern Italian businessman on a desert island. Like Robinson Crusoe he must find a way to return to civilization; unlike him--he's a 20th-century man, a totally different case.

Traveling from New York to Italia, pretty Mary rushes into moody macho lawyer Tito. The girl immediately falls for the guy with the gruffy manners and in an very impertinent way, she leans on him as she gets in trouble: Not only that she gets tied up in her suite by some Gangsters, but also, her new husband is found dead.

艾曼纽靠为报社提供新闻照片谋生，在医院里见到食人族女孩后，她决定深入亚马逊丛林。她找到了莱斯特教授，并一起来到亚马逊，借宿莱斯特好友威尔克斯家。次日，艾曼纽和莱斯特带着威尔克斯的女儿伊莎贝拉等人出发。进入丛林后，他们邂逅了“猎人”唐纳德和玛姬夫妇，遂开始一起行动。但很快，他们就遭到了食人族的袭击……这部意大利在1970年代出品的冒险恐怖片，改编自詹妮弗·奥苏利文报道的真实故事，更是一部相当彻底的Cult片。用一句话来形容本片，就是“什么都没有，只有血腥和情欲”，所以，心脏不佳或不好这口的人，千万别看它。影片开场20分钟是预热，但也极其火爆，上来就是一幕护士被抓掉胸部的残酷镜头，随后的男女、女女激情镜头也比比皆是。进入丛林之后，除了情欲画面丝毫不减外，残酷的血腥镜头大量增加，虽然从效果看，老电影制造粗糙的毛病不难看出，但依然还是很有视觉冲击力，让喜爱的观众看得大呼过瘾。
