Description : America’s favorite dimwitted due hits the jungle trail in this journey into hilarity from director Charles Furton, who’s nine films with Bud and Lau include the classic Abbot and Castello Meet Frankenstein. Bookseller Buzz Johnson (Bud Abbott) persuades the lovely but villainous Diana Emerson (Hillary Brooke) that Stanley Livington (Lou Castello), who’s even afraid of housecat, is a wild game hunter. Diana claims she wants to capture a rare orangutan, but she’s really searching for diamonds, and she doesn’t mind subjecting the boys to lions, hungry cannibals, and even a giant ape to get them. Featuring real-life animal experts Clyde Beatty and Frank “Bring ‘Em Back Alive” Buck as themselves, plus two of the immortal Three Stooges (Shemp Howard and Joe Besser), this is silliest safari ever!
