I think this is a new genre that they're all sort of working their way through it and haven't got all the kinks worked out yet but it's a genre that works for me.

Colorful but silly, this is one of those outrageous cheap films that has a lot going for it...as a delightful piece of trash! A cast of actors whose careers could be described as "never was" give hilariously bad performances with long dark haired women holding onto their hair as if they were shrouds. Tropical birds act as a Greek chorus and weak fat men act as comedy relief.White sandy islands are over abundant in this paradise of horny women searching for companionship. But be careful of what you wish for in the wilds of Wongo, and a battle between muscular strangers and equally determined ape men go after them with vigor and determination. I think somebody transfered the script from the brain of the squawking parrot because it really is a bird-brained idea in the first place. There is something about a couple of the bad actors playing the muscular natives which makes me think that they were more interested in each other rather than the women. Speaking each line as if it was recited from a Dick and Jane book, they are deliciously bad. This is up there with the best of the worst of Ed Wood's films and that on its own makes this worth watching.

This is a movie conceived and produced by juveniles for juveniles but is it ever funny. The kind of funny that kept me wondering whether everything about it, and I mean EVERYTHING, wasn't meant to be that cheesy. There's really no point in commenting on the dialogue (moronic) or acting (what acting?). I guess the scenery was OK if not for the fact we kept seeing the same scenes ad nauseam. I should say something about the characters though. The premise of the film is that there's two tribes, one of pretty women and beastly men and another of handsome men and ugly women. I guess the women were pretty enough and they were quite shapely. As for the men they all hailed from muscle beach. This was a beefcake fest with the beastly men differentiated from the handsome men primarily by the fact they were hairy. The handsome guys were shaved clean and oiled to boot. These fellas were ready for the Mr. Universe contest. So the bottom line is: could you spend an hour and 11 minutes doing something better? Absolutely, positively without a doubt. But if you do chose to see it you'll find yourself chuckling uncontrollably and that's not such a bad thing, is it?

Ever see a puppy that was so ugly it was cute? That describes this dog of a movie. Gilligan's Island meets Ed Wood gone terribly wrong. Plot? It never thickens. Rather it starts out as thin as rice paper and remains just that transparent. Dialog? The dialog coach was sent out for coffee. Acting? It is to laugh. Sets? Well, none really. Special effects? Uh, there was that rubber alligator. Makeup? Think: Blue hair meant to look grey. But hey, it IS in colour. Maybe they should of thought about that before they called for makeup. Reality? This movie is a cinema dog rocket. But if you can get into Ed Wood meets Gilligan ... It IS kinda cute and good for a chuckle or two. But not much else.

OKAY! Let me explain why I rated this movie a 10.My family and I watched this movie, knowing WELL that it would be crap. So, for what we wanted, it was spectacular. We were able to make fun of the actors/actresses, and the plot (wait, what plot?) was as stupid as we'd hoped.If I rated this seriously, I'd give it a -1. It's not even deserving of a ZERO--that's how bad it was.The "Ape Tribe" they spoke of, was comprised of two men with Wolverine hair cuts, who died by the "Dragon God" (who was a crocodile, or alligator, whichever--either way, if Steve Erwin were alive, he ought to shout "CRIKEY!") and that was the end of them. Seriously. No other "ape men" were seen.My ABSOLUTE FAVOURITE part of the entire movie, was when they were "banished" from Wongo-- I mean, the inhabited half of Wongo, and sent to some strange Priestess, or some jazz like that-- and they were forced to do a crazy "dance." Seriously, there were about four women who were about to break their necks for the dance, and the rest remained completely uninterested, and barely moved. It was like they were imitating an old fart on the dance floor--except, with less enthusiasm.So, the movie was GREAT if you'd like to laugh, make fun of the people, and basically just make wise cracks about it, but if you were ACTUALLY looking for entertainment through the movie itself, boy, are YOU in for an unpleasant surprise.....
