☆ Be the first to review + Add to your collection — Join freeAbbott and Costello travel to a temple in China where they become entangled with a sacred ape and encounter various dangers including hostile natives and temple priests. After being chased through the jungle and threatened by the Wasuli tribe, the duo must navigate the temple while being pursued by those seeking the sacred ape, leading to comedic misadventures involving the magical artifact and a beautiful woman who aids their escape.
Bud Abbott and Lou Costello venture into the jungle seeking peace and quiet, only to run afoul of Tawana, a fierce jungle queen who doesn't take kindly to intruders—though Lou's convinced she's just joking around. When a pair of scheming villains, Eric and Lulu, devise a plot to impersonate Tawana and steal the treasures of the local village, Abbott and Costello find themselves caught between the queen's wrath, the imposters' treachery, and the jungle's countless hazards. It's a wild romp through the African wilderness with the comedy duo facing off against wild animals, treacherous terrain, and their own bumbling mishaps.
Bud Abbott and Lou Costello are struggling detectives who finally land a case when a mysterious figure hires them to recover a stolen Sacred Jade Idol—for fifty bucks an hour, no less. Their investigation into Chinatown quickly becomes a chaotic mix of mistaken identities, hidden conspirators, and increasingly dangerous traps as they try to track down the sacred relic before time runs out. With their faithful partner K-9 on the case too, these two bumbling gumshoes stumble through comedy and peril in pursuit of the idol.
