The Neufeld-Newfield brothers bleached their NABONGA gorilla suit from the previous year to make this camp jungle drama. Undercover policeman Fraser goes on safari with a group of British biologists out to capture a mythic white primate believed to be the missing link. Fraser suspects the expedition's guide to be a killer. Sure enough, once in the wilds, the wicked guide suborns mutiny among the bearers, strands the scientists, abducts the beautiful daughter of the expedition's chief, and goes off to find some gold he's heard about. Unbeknownst to the bad man and his minions, his band has ambled into the abode of the blond title beast, which strangles the guide and--apparently hankering for a little female companionship--re-abducts Wrixon. Bearing the shrieking beauty--her blouse now in tatters--to his cave, the albino is confronted by a brunette counterpart. The two beasts battle over the battered beauty. As the pristine Pongo hurls his rival primate from a cliff, Fraser and the biologists arrive. They wound the surviving beast with rifle shots, cage him, and take him back to England for further study. Will these gorillas never learn to treat a girl with a little respect? The film is filled with irrelevant, mismatched stock shots of various African beasts. leave a comment
