Young military cadets are marooned on an island and must take up adult responsibilities. With no supervision, they create a new society -- but two chiefs emerge with vastly different leadership styles. Ralph (Balthazar Getty) organizes shelter and fire for his followers, while Jack (Chris Furrh) would rather have fun and hunt with his entourage of adventure-seekers. In the end, the foes face off in a battle of primal urges and civilized behavior.
1990 R 90 minutes
4.13 stars (Dale-4, David-4.25) Better editing and filing then the older version. Acting was better in the British classic (Except Balthazar...who does a fantastic job).
