Welcome to our newest episode. This time we throw you into the travesty of Bela Lugosi Meets A Brooklyn Gorilla.

Two performers on a USO tour get stranded on an island, are found by a tribe, and tussle with a mad scientist on the island.

Yes, Bela Lugosi is in this horror/comedy, but the real "stars" are the Duke Mitchell and Sammy Petrillo, a couple of Martin and Lewis impersonators that make this movie unwatchable. Sammy (as Sammy) and Duke (as Duke) fill the movie with obvious and terrible attempts to replicate the famous duo. Sammy's facial expressions and jokes fall flat, even with the characters in the movie. Duke's singing gets awkward and creepy. The only light we find is the captions on YouTube, and the multiple times "Dukie" (Sammy's nickname for Duke) is said. Seriously, make Dukie jokes. We make them! You should, too! Let us tell you how much we hated this movie, and how sad we are that Bela Lugosi is forever attached to it.

Will you stay clean, or will you soak in this Corpse Tub? 

Bela Lugosi Meets a Brooklyn Gorilla is available on Amazon Prime, tubi, YouTube, MGM+, Fandor, Filmbox, Paramount +, and Plex.
