Ahh, Mantan Moreland, the great unsung black cinematic hero of his day... Some of his roles are now considered to be un-PC, as he often played a superstitious, cowardly servant, ready to flee at the first sign of danger, but this was just a small portion of his prolific career, which included many early all-black films as well as dozens of mainstream comedies, mysteries and horror movies, best known for his role as chauffeur Birmingham Brown in the Charlie Chan series. At the height of his career, Moreland received steady work from major studios, including movies which featured his own name in the title. He'd even been considered as a possible addition to the Three Stooges when Shemp Howard died in 1955!

nice movie, not too special, but some really funny dialogue, take this for example: two men in the jungle, listening to unknown, voodoodrum-like sounds. "listen. what does it sound like to you?" answer: "I don't know. but it sure ain't gene krupa." and there's more in it. also has some creepy moments. nice entertainment, worth watching. :)
