Jungle Bride (1933)

No debate. This is one of the dumbest movies ever made. The budget couldn’t handle hostile natives but they did manage the usual stock footage of animals. To say this is awful is too much of a compliment. Gordon Wayne … Continue reading →

Posted on August 17, 2014 by vintage45

If the first forty-five minutes hadn’t have been so lame with some bad attempts at comedy this would have been a really great movie. As it is the final forty minutes almost make up for it. Despite a bad start … Continue reading →
