the naked prey (1966)

"I'm not giving them anything..."
A safari guide (Cornel Wilde) is taken prisoner by a tribe, who feel slighted when the party he heads refuses to pay them tribute. One by one the group are executed until only the man is left. As the last survivor the man is given a chance to live, but only as long as he can out pace his pursuers. Thus he is set free, naked and alone...
Film that obviously influenced Mel Gibson's Apocalypto, a simple premise that manages to keep you watching.
