DUEL IN THE JUNGLE is one of those dullish exotic adventures seemingly padded out to the nth degree with stock footage of African wildlife. When the actual characters taking part in the slim plot do engage with their surroundings, it's via particularly bad back projection footage which, when combined with the garish colour palette, looks particularly awful. Dana Andrews is on autopilot as the insurance investigator looking into a mysterious disappearance, but the emphasis is on tired romance and cliche here. Things only pick up for a lively rapids-based climax which cost one of the crew members his life.
