Jungle goddess, diamond lust, and a tribe with a taste for trouble in Jesús Franco’s wildest safari.
DIAMONDS OF KILIMANDJARO
They came to rescue the white goddess. Most came for what she guarded.
Liana has no desire to leave the jungle that raised her. When outsiders arrive claiming family ties, their promises of civilization conceal greed, betrayal, and a plan to steal her inheritance.
Quick Answer
Diamonds of Kilimandjaro is a 1983 French-Spanish action, adventure, horror, and romance film directed by Jesús Franco and Olivier Mathot about an expedition into the African jungle searching for a lost woman who has become a tribe's goddess, where inheritance schemes and diamond fever lead to deadly conflict.
Programmer's Pick
Jesús Franco’s jungle is less about survival and more about who’s watching whom—whether it’s for diamonds, skin, or a shot at inheritance. Come for the cannibals, stay for the parade of loincloths and jungle seductions. The real danger is missing the next wild left turn.
