Queen of the Amazons

Actors: Patricia Morison, Robert Lowery, Bruce Edwards, John Miljan, Keith Richards, Wilson Benge, J. Edward Bromberg, Amira Moustafa
Rating: 1 out of 10, The next in my exploration of just how bad B-movies can sink to. A lady is determined to find her fiancé who went on a safari only to disappear. She assembles a group of guys to track him through India but a soon to be assassinated informant sends them on to Africa. While on the track of her missing beau she falls for the woman hating safari guide. That turns out to be a good thing because the long missing fiancé is found in the arms of the Amazon queen, fully coiffed and presiding over a barnyard in the jungle. I guess animal attacks were high theater in the late 1940s because there were some well-fed lions and tigers, no bears though. Bad cinema – but laugh out loud unintentional comedy
MVP: Morrison as the very focused fiancé
