I remember seeing this movie when I was a kid and I do remember Dennis Weaver's role as the pilot. I was also vaguely familiar with Filipino actor Bruno Punzalan who always played some unsavory characters in many of his films. One of my favorite scenes depicted some little known details and facts of this war where the Japanese soldiers who were reputed to be superior jungle fighters in WWII, were in the jungle being stalked by Filipino "Negrito" warriors who were headhunters. The headhunters were eliminating the Japanese troops one-by-one and in this one climaxing scene, a Japanese Officer was barking orders to his remaining men when he was shot in the throat by one of these Negritos who used a blowgun and poisoned dart. As the soldier fell mortally wounded and dying, the Negrito calmly walked up to him and decapitated his body. That was a very morbid, but fascinating scene which introduced this little known sub-group of Filipino to the audience.
