...endless, empty stretches of white sand glimmering in the roseate reflection of billions of tiny shells. Barbuda (pronounced Ear-byou-duh), which has one of the Caribbean's few bird sanctuaries, also offers the area's best hunting: white crown pigeon, guinea hen, duck, fallow deer and feral boar...

Steve Harrison as Cousin Kevin is chilling as he produces an amazing picture of sadism and feral, sexual hunger while viciously torturing his helpless cousin.

Iraq and Syria, whose rival Baath parties have been quarreling for years, are now involved in an even more feral argument over sharing the Euphrates' water; the Soviets are damned if they take sides and damned if they don't. Moscow is also faced with an inevitable conflict between Communism and either Arab nationalism or Moslem theocracy, or both...
