[Confronting his alcoholic wife]
Dr. Paul Talbot:
It's interesting to watch a "bottle baby" defend her weakness. One thing I can say for you, your approach is always different. Today, it's complete submission. I can't even get a rise out of you. You know, I think I like you better when you're sloppy drunk and violent. That's the real you, and that's the one I like, the one that hates me and gives me a chance to hate back.
Old Malla:
You will never escape me, you are the one in my dreams of blood!
Dr. Paul Talbot:
Well, that's a novelty -- you're refusing anything with alcohol in it! I'm not used to seeing you sober this time of day.
Continuity: The stock footage used to portray the tribal celebrations shows several different African tribes in various different tribal dresses as well as various different kinds of celebrations.
Factual errors: While pursuing June, the leopard roars and growls repeatedly. Cats do not growl while stalking or on the chase.
Miscellaneous: When the dynamite explodes, the tribesmen fall towards the explosion.
Continuity: While resting near the water after their escape from the village, June and the scout see two crocodiles climbing ashore near them. We then cut to a close-up of an alligator.
