Director: George McCowan
Movie review
From Time Out Film Guide
A tired, TV-style chase movie, which has 200-year-old evil spirits hounding a young man of Red Indian descent over 300 miles of assault course: snakes, bears, evil winds and the like. The only points of interest are Chief Dan George as the hero's medicine-man grandfather, and McCowan, whose previous directorial credits include the excellent natural pest/exploitation movie, Frogs.Author: RG
