Originally, the foreman seeks the aid of two bounty hunters who pursue the protagonists throughout the film. At the end, both the foreman and the bounty hunters catch up with the two escaped slaves, and the foreman has a change of heart, helping to kill the bounty hunters.

This movie is the absolute worst film that has ever been created...The fact that multiple imdbeeps give this monstrosity a 10 rating has perturbed me to no end... I get that they are orchestrating this as a tongue-in-cheek act, rating a bad movie high is always fun! Or so they....imagine. Comedy is great in most ever situation.... except with regard to reviewing this flick. Even the slightest amount of humor is inappropriate, trust me. Why the hate? While most "bad" movies (ie Manos) have some redeeming comedy factor, this one has none. Checking out the VHS box is the best way to enjoy this movie...Notes:1: White director/writer/producer stars AS BLACK SLAVE, (aka Albino N$&@#% in the film) All actual black characters do not question this, regardless of his obviously Caucasian features2: My VHS cover from Walmart has Snidely Whiplash attacking a slave with hedge pruners. BOTH ACTORS ARE NOT IN THE FILM.3. 6+ times there are shots of the 2 guys walking slowly through swamps (for up to 5 minutes)4. Main villain is Lurch from the original Adams Family show. ??scary

...and I saw both feardotcom and without a paddle in theaters.and i've watched the films of ed wood. and sat through many a roger corman classic. and generally rented every bad movie in the bowels of the video store. this is the single most painfully horrible movie i've ever seen. the only other thing i've watched in recent memory that was even close to this bad was six string samurai (I was so disappointed in that one). But, on the upside, you can use it as a torture device to annoy your friends. There's nothing like subjecting them to bad acting, a white guy masquerading as an "albino" black man, and just generally terrible movie-making. I first saw this film when I was 17. I'm now 23, and have yet to find anything to top it. The one and only reason I'm giving this two stars is because I like to torture people with it from time to time. Try it back to back with the Star Wars Holiday Special to rid your house of unwanted guests.

While I don't have MUCH to say about this hilariously, painful monstrosity I do have one question...who the hell thinks of sh*t like an 'albino'-black slave? And for that matter, why is being a pasty-skinned Anglo-Saxon male considered close enough? If indeed the story calls for an albino I'd expect any respectable casting agent to go out and find such a person. True the population of albino-Africans is probably not soaring through the roof, but any albino would do (with exception of those of Asian kin); or perhaps a better make-up artist was all that was needed. Whatever the case, when I have trouble conceptualizing the viability towards one of MAIN characters, I find the rest of the film to be contrived and lackluster. BUT, with the right amount of THC in your system (or whatever your poison may be) the movie quickly becomes a wonderful, laughable joke. I'm sure this was not intended, but at least they accomplished something with a flick that otherwise would be better used as a book-end.

I recieved this movie as a Christmas gift from a friend. We decided that it looked good and had to be watched right away. Little did we know that this movie holds a horrible secret. Much like the fictitious tape in "The Ring", this movie really does have the power to kill, or at least make one very ill. Upon completion of the movie the friend who purchased it became sick, and didn't recover until some two weeks later. As, he is generally a healthy person who rarely gets sick, the only explanation can be that he purchased this movie, only to succomb to its awesome power. So, I warn you, if you buy this movie, watch it at your own risk, and don't say that I didn't warn you.
