World Safari II (1985) Reviews

These further adventures of director Alby Mangels take him from Oceania to Latin America as he travels by sailboat, jeep, small planes, and motorbikes to encounter everything from crocodiles to car crashes and fires. Although more in the vein of an amateur home movie, events keep eyes on the action as Mangels starts off on his sailing ship, the "Gretta Marie," with a minimal crew and a tough little bull terrier named Sam. Many nautical and land miles later, Mangels finds himself in the Australian outback competing in a horse race and searching for wild animals -- while other dangers lie ahead that neither he nor his series of female companions could have predicted. As a sequel to his 1975 documentary World Safari, this film should be just as popular among audiences interested in real-life adventure.
