    WALK INTO PARADISE 1956. Directed by Lee Robinson, Marcello Pagliero, co-Wrote by CHIPS RAFFERTY. TAGLINES : "White Woman's Courage vs. Witch Doctor's Curse!" "Last frontier for a REAL witch doctor" "A White Man and Woman Alone...In a Black Hell of 40,000 Savages!" - Steve McAllister, an Australian official for The New Guinea Administration, gets orders to investigate an oil discovery by Ned 'Shark-Eye' Kelly in the interior. He selects his native policeman, Sergeant-Major Towalaka, to accompany him on his "walk into hell" and then finds that a French lady doctor, Louise Dumurcet, is to go with them part of the journey. They find the malaria-stricken Jeff Clayton in a deserted village and he joins the trek. They are captured by jungle-natives but are released after Dr. Dumurcet cures the fever-stricken children of the chief. This picture was one of fifty Australian films selected for preservation as part of the National Film and Sound Archive of Australia's Kodak / Atlab Cinema Collection Restoration Project. Long before Australia had a real film industry, Chips Rafferty and Lee Robinson made movies in an old picture theatre at Bondi Junction (Sydney). They began modestly making small budget films for the Australian market but soon realized the importance of International distribution. With no help from the government, they arranged their own co-production deal with a French company.  Released in USA in 1957 as WALK INTO HELL. CAST includes Chips Rafferty, Francoise Christophe, Reg Lye, Pierre Cressoy.
