Behold a savage world where men are slaves to desire... and women are their demanding masters! (taglines)
Queen Kari
[to David] I did not save you for others, strange one. You're mine. Mine alone. Think on this.
You see! Already you want to impose your will. You want to dominate me. I'd be a fool to let any man do that again.
My body hungers. Bring food and drink to my chambers.

Blonde Slave Girl #1: We are not beasts of the field. We are women!
Dialogue
David: What is it?
Jakara: It is the sign of the sacred white rhino. It guards the entry to the land of the Pu'naka. Wait, walla!
David: Well, we haven't gone this far to be turned back by a primitive tree carving!
Jakara: But, here, the devils of darkness are all about us!
David: The devils of what?
Jakara: The spirits of the past - that protect their holy shrine, from the desecration of the lure of the ice.
Warrior: You are on the hallowed hunting grounds of the Pu'naka. No hunting is allowed here!
David: I only came to end the suffering of this wounded beast.
Warrior: Your presence has disturbed the spirit of the white rhinoceros!
David: Are there no men here to help you?
Saria: But you said you had come to help us.
David: But your men? Where are they?
Saria: They are no longer - men.
Kari: Let the dancing continue.
Amyak: Permit me, my Queen, to speak.
Kari: Speak, slave.
Amyak: The women are tired. And when the heart is heavy the feet are not light. Let there be no more dancing.
Kari: You heard my command. Dance!
Amyak: Poor Saria, she's too young to have suffered so.
Blonde Slave Girl #2: Then let this be your lesson. Many more of us will have to suffer, if you persist in this senseless search for freedom. There is no escape!
Kari: Why do you hesitate?
David: It will take me a little time to...
Kari: You must learn that each command must be obeyed at once. - - Come.
Kari: You refuse me?
David: What else can you expect? Your heartless cruelty is sickening!
Kari: You'd have me otherwise?
David: What makes you so cruel?
Kari: Cruelty has made me cruel.
Kari: I was once their slave. Before the devils came, we dark ones were in bondage to the fair ones. You would have pitied me then. A meek, cringing creature. You would have pitied me; but, you would not have wanted me.
David: I don't want you now!
Kari: Has the woman always been subservient to a man to be wanted?
David: No.
Kari: Do you suggest we should be equal?
David: Yes.
Kari: Then I will be your equality. Share my throne and my kingdom with you.
Kari: You will want me - and on my terms!
David: Never!
Kari: I am Queen here - I will not be denied!
David: You will never rule me.
Kari: Then like the others, you will become my slave.
Saria: No! I release you from your promise.
Kari: What promise?
David: There is no promise.
Kari: He has fulfilled your desires only because I made him promise that he would.
