Summary:
" 'An adventure that makes the blood race...romance, mystery -- and peril!' So promised the North American Newspaper Alliance in 1928 when they sponsored an Amazon expedition to determine the fate of a famous explorer who hadn't been seen in three years. Led by George M. Dyott (Robin Hughes), a commander in the British Naval Reserve, the team ventured deep into the jungle in search of P.H. Fawcett (James Wilson), a British colonel who disappeared in Brazil's Mato Grosso region in 1925. Following a trail left by the colonel, Dyott braves hostile natives, giant reptiles, raging rapids and more as he tries to retrace Fawcett's steps before he vanished without a trace. Shot entirely in Amazon country..." --Container.
