Trivia

Director Elwood Price took the completed film to most of the big movie studios and TV networks and was roundly rejected, usually being told that no one wanted to see a documentary about "natives". He finally took it to exploitation legend Dan Sonney, who marketed it as an "outLaw" picture, one that was "too hot" for Hollywood to touch. It made a fortune. See more »
