Rating: 5 out of 5 stars - a guilty pleasure for sure!

Rating: 2 out of 5 stars - Junkle Craptive

Rating: 2 out of 5 stars - Low grade horror film
This is a low grade horror film so bad it's entertaining. Last of the Paula the ape woman trilogy it's not as dull as "Jungle Woman" and not as mechanical or loaded with stock shots as is "Captive Wild Woman" One of my guilty pleasures.
