Africa Screams


America's favorite dimwitted duo hits the jungle trail in this journey into hilarity from director Charles Barton, whose nine films with Bud and Lou include the classic Abbott & Costello Meet Frankenstein. Bookseller Buzz Johnson (Bud Abbott) pursuades the lovely bur villainous Diana Emerson (Hillary Brooke) that Stanley Livingston (Lou Costello), who's even afraid of a 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 Franl "Bring Em Back Alive" Buck as themselves, plus plus two of the immortal Three Stooges (Shemp Howard and Joe Besser), this is the sillest safari ever !
