Sheena
Part animal. Part legend. All woman.
Directed by John Guillermin
Produced by Delphi II Productions, Colgems Productions Ltd.
A pulpy adventure fantasy about a jungle-raised woman with animal communion powers who must protect her foster mother and survive mercenary pursuit across African wilderness.
Sheena's parents are killed while on Safari. She is raised by the mystical witch woman of an African tribe. When her foster mother is framed for the murder of a political leader, Sheena and a newsman, Vic Casey, are forced to flee while pursued by the mercenaries hired by the real killer, who hopes to assume power. Sheena's ability to talk to the animals and knowledge of jungle lore give them a chance against the high tech weapons of the mercenaries.
