1949 - AFRICA SCREAMS, not a good Abbott and Costello film.

This is not a good Abbott and Costello film.  This was apparently an independent film made by Bud and Lou away from Universal Studios.

 

It seems Bud and Lou are on a diamond hunt in Africa.  They run into lions, cannibals, and a guy in a gorilla costume.  The studio set is the usual phony jungle plants.  The comedic situations are  to put it mildly very lame.  The whole thing just seems tired.

The film runs a long 79 minutes, it was written by Earl Baldwin.
