Producer – Cornel Wilde. Originaly issued as Folkways FW08454. The Naked Prey ‎(LP).

The Naked Prey is a 1965 adventure film starring Cornel Wilde, who also served as director and producer, which was released by Paramount Pictures. Set in the South African veldt, the film is a wilderness survival story loosely based on the experiences of explorer John Colter, who was pursued by Blackfoot warriors through frontier Wyoming in 1809. The screenplay earned Clint Johnson and Don Peters an Academy Award nomination.

Director: Cornel Wilde, Sven Persson. In the bush country of South Africa in the late 19th century, chauvinistic hunter Gert vanDen Bergh calculatedly offends a local tribal chief. Given several opportunities, he refuses to apologize. As consequence, vanDen Bergh and the rest of his hunting party are captured by the tribesmen and grotesquely tortured to death. The only white man spared is safari-guide Cornel Wilde, whom the natives respect and vice versa

Cornel Wilde, who produced, directed and starred in The Naked Prey. 16 October, 2015 01:00. Gert Van Den Bergh and Cornel Wilde. IN HIS prime, actor Cornel Wilde lived something of a double life. Alongside earning a crust as a handsome leading man in the Hollywood studio system he was also an independent producer, writer and director who crafted his own films that set out to put mankind in the midst of the most dramatic situations imaginable.

Cornel Wilde is & and Man is The Naked Prey.

Wilde's other Hollywood career highlight was as trapeze artist The Great Sebastian in Cecil B DeMille's Oscar winning The Greatest Show on Earth, for which he performed a number of his own aerial stunts. However, when substantial or challenging roles dried up, Wilde set out to produce and direct his own feature films, creating roles for himself that he felt were better suited to his more versatile talents. The Naked Prey transplants Colter's story to the plains of South Africa, with the hero reimagined as a hunter and ivory trader who is forced to flee from local tribesmen after another member of his party offends them.

Cornel Wilde’s The Naked Prey (1966) is a great movie, as elemental, straightforward, stripped down, and engrossing as it is possible to imagine: fast-paced, riveting, harrowing, savage. Shot entirely in Africa in Panavision (a widescreen cinematographic process) and lush Eastmancolor, it relates the story of a 19th-century European ivory-hunting safari captured and brutally butchered by natives, and its sole survivor, the guide Man -the only identification provided for Wilde’s character-who is stripped naked, given a brief head start, and then murderously pursued as human prey.

Director: Cornel Wilde. Starring: Man, Second man, Leader of the warriors and others. Glamorous leading man turned idiosyncratic auteur Cornel Wilde created in the 1960s and ’70s a handful of gritty, violent explorations of the nature of man, none more memorable than The Naked Prey.
