Doctors have landed on "the south sea island", to help the natives with illness, but the local witch doctor doesn't appreciate the interference. and of course, there is the witch doctor's love triangle issue. one of the native villagers DOES co-operate with the medical doctors, and it doesn't go well for him. Now there is a walking tree stump (!) walking the island, knocking people off one by one. it's quite amusing... it walks so slowly, a child could easily outrun (out-walk) it, and yet it's still killing people. Stars Tod Andrews, Tina Carver, and Linda Watkins. It's all pretty silly, but plays well enough. It's rated 3.5, after only 900 votes on imdb, but it's really not so bad. There are so many worse horror films rated higher than this! it's all played a little tongue in cheek. Not so bad. Shows on Turner Classics now and then. This appears to be one of only THREE films that Dan Milner directed... looks like he spent most of his career editing films. The script is a bit silly, and some of the acting is cheesy, but its all in good fun.
