Kailansorac Clever, believable, and super fun to watch. It totally has replay value.

Claire Dunne One of the worst ways to make a cult movie is to set out to make a cult movie.

Kirandeep Yoder The joyful confection is coated in a sparkly gloss, bright enough to gleam from the darkest, most cynical corners.

Anoushka Slater While it doesn't offer any answers, it both thrills and makes you think.

rjun67 I first bumped into this film last year on the Movies 4 Men channel (known for its dubbed or appallingly cheap films), I tuned in at the end and I was horrified that Doug McClure's character stated his intention to take a young boy into the Mountains with him!(I saw the film was dubbed but wasn't expecting such behaviour from our hero-even if the message had been lost in translation!)Anyhow I got bored last week and saw the film was back on so I decided to watch it again. It was worth every second!......It was full of unintentionally classic scenes...I could not stop laughing!Firstly the plot is dreadful (blah blah gold rush, blah blah dead man's promise, blah blah sick boy etc..)but so many scenes are bad that it seems as if the film is a comedy! I loved the Bar fight scene, it went on for hours and was so fake that i was on the floor laughing!, then the sick boys dad is tortured by Indians (or Eskimo's?)but they look more like Russians!, and Doug McClure (poor man's roving American in 1970's Euro films)has to promise the dying Man that he will find his sick boy and take him to the Mountains!....The boy is meanwhile captured by the bad guys who talk very loudly about what to do with him!...he manages to escape and gets in a fight with a terrifying house trained bald eagle who does more staring than tearing!, It must be said also that this is not a 'Call of the Wild' rip off.....because they couldn't even be bothered to put a dog in the film (let alone a Wolf or a Hellhound!)..well, apart from some flea bitten Alsatian who gets killed within 5 minutes!, The film seems to last for 25 hours and you end up saying ...'come on', 'look behind you'! or 'It's the bloody Sheriff you idiot'! But please watch it , you won't regret it!

lauramerle I came across this gem of a movie in the "$1.00 DVD" bin at a local supermarket. I thought the title was intriguing and for a buck, I figured why not? I'm always interested in how outsiders portray our state. Boy, I had no idea what was in store for me! From the sprawling scenery of what could be Alaska/California/somewhere in Europe to the portrayal of a gold rush town and the Alaska "Indians", it is comedy gold. My favorite line is when one of the bad guys announces, "We head for the border...California!" That's quite a ride on horseback. And then there's the inimitable Captain Brandy, who seems destined for alcohol poisoning. This film is packed with high-quality cheesiness. Have fun!

John Seal Doug McClure, the very poor man's Warren Oates, stars in this thoroughly wretched West German-Yugoslavian co-production set in the wilds of Alaska. Here in Alaska, the local natives do not appear remotely Inuit, but do bear a striking resemblance to Winnetou and his friends. That's just one of many bizarre aspects of this film, directed with a complete lack of grace by the generally reliable Harald Reinl and featuring a score that it doesn't deserve from Bruno Nicolai. There's stuff about stolen gold, a seriously ill boy, a black former prize fighter called Ham A Ham (played by a Tunisian actor of Cuban descent who lives in Germany), and a saloon where they keep the whiskey in beer barrels. It's poorly dubbed, badly shot, apparently edited by a blind woman, and schizophrenically plotted. McClure probably hoped this film would become The Movie That Time Forgot, but sadly it lives on in video store dollar bins and on budget DVDs.

Sean Richard McCarthy This is one of the dumbest movies I have ever seen! There is a bar fight that reminds me of "Night of the Living Dead" and a jail break that could be a scene from the "Little Rascals" series! Nothing is interesting at all about this movie, unless you just want to waste some time!And to think that on the cover it says "This is a movie you will watch again and again"! What sin could I commit to deserve this?!
