"Wolf" Wolfson is a consultant for the army who want to place some sort of computer system in a cave in south America. When they explore those caves they meet a forgotten people. The built up is actually quite good and suspenseful when people get killed one by one without knowing who is after them. The film is well directed and most of the cast give a really good performance. The story itself is a not so subtle allegory of the Vietnam war but again, it works rather well without being too obvious. The drawback however is that the film's lack of budget becomes fairly obvious early on. The rocks are obviously made of cardboard and the caves themselves look painted. Eb´ven for 1984 the sets are really bad. Overall, the film has a very cheap look about it. But it is intellignet and well directed.
