the boys from brooklyn (1952)

AKA Bela Lugosi Meets a Brooklyn Gorilla.
"Did you take a bath this morning? Why is there one missing?"
Duke Mitchell and his pal Sammy Petrillo (cut price Martin and Lewis impersonators) on their way to Guam to entertain the troops end up on the jungle paradise of Cola-Cola. They are found by a friendly tribe and helped by the chief's daughter Nona (Charlita). She introduces them to Dr Zabor (Bela Lugosi), who jealous of how well Mitchell is getting on with Nona turns him into a gorilla.
Poor imitation of Martin and Lewis, with poor jokes to go along with it. Meanwhile Lugosi passes through on his way to obscurity and Ed Wood Jr's films.
