After troubling hunters and natives, the white gorilla fights the king of the black gorillas while we are told by a narrator that the fate of Africa hangs in the balance.

They must have had some leftover film and an old silent movie. Some Saturday afternoon, everyone got together and put together the bulk of this. Then a couple monkey suits left over from an old Lugosi film, a little narration, a scene in a trading post set, and voilà, you have a dumb movie. It apparently takes place in Africa but there are animals from all over the world. The elephants are mostly Indian elephants and there are tigers and lions. The story is about as lame as you can get in that there is no closure anywhere. Issues are never tied up. The narrator, Crash Corrigan, spends almost the whole movie thrashing around in the weeds, spying on people. He doesn't do anything to help. There is also a silly looking little boy who has dominion over animals and black natives. It goes around and around and never gets anywhere. This is a real bomb.
