Bela Lugosi Meets a Brooklyn Gorilla (1952)

Entertainers Mitchell and Petrillo (Martin & Lewis clones) parachute into the jungles of the Pacific island of Cola-Cola, where they meet primitive tribesmen, the chief's sarong-clad daughter Nona, and a mad scientist named Dr. Zabor who is conducting experiments in evolution. Seeing Duke as a threat, a jealous Dr. Zabor plans to literally make a monkey out of Duke, for he too loves Nona. Sammy tries to help his pal, with unexpected results. Starring Bela Lugosi, Duke Mitchell, Sammy Petrillo and Charlita. A goofy gorilla-bigfoot movie from the 50s!
