The doctor is maniacally jealous of anyone who expresses an interest in the beautiful native princess, Nona. When Duke and the princess fall in love, Zabor subjects the comic to his fiendish experiments and turns him into a singing gorilla. As the newly transformed ape runs wild on the island, Sammy must find a way to remain human himself while searching for a way to restore his partner to normal. Bela Lugosi seems to enjoy sending up his screen image and Petrillo's imitation of Jerry Lewis is flawless. William Beaudine, who directed over 250 films in his career, had worked with Lugosi in \u003ci\u003eThe Ape Man\u003c\/i\u003e and \u003ci\u003eGhosts on the Loose\u003c\/i\u003e (both 1943). In addition to writing numerous comedies and \u003ci\u003eBowery Boys\u003c\/i\u003e movies, writer Tim Ryan also acted in dozens of Poverty Row productions spanning over forty years.  Associate Producer Herman Cohen later gained international fame for his productions of \u003ci\u003eI Was a Teenage Werewolf,\u003c\/i\u003e \u003ci\u003eHow to Make a Monster,\u003c\/i\u003e \u003ci\u003eHorrors of the Black Museum\u003c\/i\u003e and several other drive-in classics.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cspan style=\"COLOR: #0000ff\"\u003eDVD Details\u003c\/span\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u0026gt;Rated:  NR\u003cbr\u003e\u0026gt;Runtime:  1 hours,  14 minutes\u003cbr\u003e\u0026gt;Encoding: Region 1(US \u0026amp; Canada)\u003cbr\u003e\u0026gt;Originally Released:  1\/1\/2025\u003cbr\u003e\u0026gt;Label:  Alpha Video\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eStarring: Bela Lugosi\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cdiv style=\"BORDER-BOTTOM: blue 3px solid; BORDER-LEFT: blue 3px solid; WIDTH: 675px; HEIGHT:140px; BORDER-TOP: blue 3px solid; BORDER-RIGHT: blue 3px solid\"\u003eThis product is made-on-demand by the manufacturer using DVD-R recordable media.
