A half crazed survivor of an expedition comes out of the Congo jungle telling a tall tale of a fabulous albino gorilla that the natives call Pongo which gets another expedition going. Could this albino ape possibly be the fabled missing link on the evolutionary chain between sapien and simian?
This PRC cheapie used some stock jungle footage and no doubt a trip to the Botanical Gardens served as the rest of the jungle. Not all that different from major studios either, but in this case the film was shot from an old Bell&Howell home movie camera with terrible sound.
There's also a murderous guide with German accent and in 1945 people with those accents were inevitably villains. Add to that a love triangle with a couple of the men panting hot and heavy after Maris Wrixon the only woman on the trip. Even the fabulous White Pongo gets his old libido running for her.
This one is awful, the cast should be commended for keeping straight faces throughout.
