    • Quotes

      Dennis Johnson: [after Bomba has been shot down while swinging on a vine] "You fool! We came to capture Bomba, not to kill him!"

    Sue England makes this Bomba pictures slightly better than others
    Bomba has to help the beautiful Sue England (who has kind of a cute Bettie Page bangs thing going on), who is the rightful heir to the throne, but is instead forced to marry the dastardly Hassan who seeks to steal the kingdom. Silly, low budget, and completely unoriginal, but I will say I enjoyed this one slightly more than the other Bomba films I've seen.
