The story follows explorer Steve Collins, who recounts a tale of a rare albino gorilla living deep in the jungle. As Collins forms a bond with the creature, a journalist named Ruth Stacey seeks to uncover the mystery behind his discovery. The film blends silent-era action with newly filmed sequences, resulting in a unique mix of storytelling styles.  Credits: Director: Harry L.

00:00:00.

00:01:00The jungle, weird, mysterious, home of countless beasts of prey with their thunderous roars and haunting cries, echoed by the somber beat of distant drums. Drums that tell of natives hidden in its fastness, with its paths leading to unseen, unheard of dangers.

00:01:30The jungle, weird, mysterious, home of countless beasts of prey with their thunderous roars.

00:01:59The jungle, through which countless and daring explorers have fought their way.

00:02:11Seeking to verify the truth of the strange and fantastic stories that have veiled this land of mystery. Some of them never to return.

00:02:21Victims of the savage tribes who call the jungle theirs. Some to fall before the flashing fangs of jungle beasts. Others, like myself, to escape.

00:02:33Carrying with me vivid scars and memories that can never be erased. Memories that recall a strange, unbelievable experience that started when I, Steve Collins, was acting as a guide out of Morgan's trading post.

00:02:51Well, there you are, Stacy. There's what you ordered, huh? That ought to fix you up.

00:03:06It'll take more than that to fix me up.

00:03:08Don't tell me the jungle's getting you.

00:03:10Not the jungle. It's the everlasting noise that comes from what it gets on my nerves.

00:03:16I don't see how you stand it, Morgan.

00:03:18I've grown so used to jungle noise, I'd be lonesome without it now.

00:03:22You know I'm good used to it.

00:03:23Yeah?

00:03:23I might get used to it, Morgan, but I'll never feel lonesome for it.

00:03:31I'll agree with you on that point.

00:03:33Maybe you'll agree with me on another.

00:03:35That Ed Bradford was a fool to attempt an expedition through a country he knew so little about.

00:03:39Well, you won't get an argument there.

00:03:41You may either.

00:03:43I'll go you one further.

00:03:46I think you and I are fools trying to solve a riddle that's never been explained.

00:03:50We do know that Ed Bradford entered the jungle, but until we settle, once and for all, whether he is dead or alive,

00:04:00we're going to be guests of Mr. Morgan here at the trading post.

00:04:03Yes, and keep on being fools.

00:04:05For my part, I just as soon call it off.

00:04:06Mr. Morgan, I'll go.

00:04:26Mr. Morgan, I'll go.

00:04:31Dr. Morgan!

00:04:31Give me a hand quick.

00:04:35Mr. Morgan!

00:04:36I don't know.

00:05:06Do you know him, Morgan?

00:05:12Of course I do.

00:05:13Steve Collins, Bradford's guide.

00:05:15Right.

00:05:16What do you suppose happened to Bradford and the rest of them?

00:05:18He's the guide?

00:05:19What could have happened?

00:05:22Walt, the piece.

00:05:23Don't let him get me.

00:05:24Easy now.

00:05:25Easy.

00:05:26The marks on him sure have been pretty badly clawed, too.

00:05:30Think of it as a lion?

00:05:31If a lion jumped him, he wouldn't be here.

00:05:36Easy now, fella.

00:05:39You want to sit up?

00:05:41You're all right now, Collins.

00:05:43This is Morgan.

00:05:44You're back in my trading post.

00:05:46The beast you sought?

00:05:48Well, no.

00:05:49We only heard you fall outside the door.

00:05:52Oh, it's no use.

00:05:55If you didn't see it, you wouldn't believe me.

00:05:57No one would.

00:05:58Believe what?

00:06:01That I saw the white gorilla.

00:06:03You didn't see any pink elephants at the same time, did you?

00:06:07Or any singing rhino?

00:06:11I've heard of a lot of queer beasts I've been here.

00:06:13But no white gorillas.

00:06:16Well, I have.

00:06:18You have?

00:06:20Many times from the natives.

00:06:21They claim there is a white gorilla.

00:06:24An outcast from all other gorillas due to its odd coloring.

00:06:29It was driven out of its family circle when it was born.

00:06:32And its hate for anything that walks makes it a deadly enemy.

00:06:36One to keep clear of.

00:06:40Was it the white gorilla that jumped you?

00:06:42Yes.

00:06:45Maybe that's what got Bradford.

00:06:47You were Bradford's guide.

00:06:48Is that what happened to him?

00:06:50No.

00:06:51Well, what did?

00:06:52You knew the country you were going into.

00:06:54Why didn't he return with you?

00:06:57Because he wouldn't listen to me.

00:07:01From the time we left here, he set the course.

00:07:05Picked the trails.

00:07:07We went on for days.

00:07:09Making camp at night.

00:07:11Always near a stream.

00:07:14Even after a long day's trek,

00:07:16he would insist on exploring away from camp.

00:07:19I knew we were in bad country.

00:07:23Country where the natives hated the white man.

00:07:27I warned Bradford time after time to stay close to camp.

00:07:31But he would just laugh.

00:07:35Start out with one of his party.

00:07:40Then when he failed to return,

00:07:43I started out looking for him.

00:07:45And when I found him,

00:07:47I saw why he hadn't returned.

00:07:53Bradford's trail led me to this village.

00:07:55The tone of their drums warned me to go easy.

00:08:09Hidden nearby,

00:08:11I discovered Bradford and Allison

00:08:13were prisoners of one of the most savage tribes in the jungle.

00:08:17As I watched,

00:08:25trying to figure a way to rescue them,

00:08:28an elephant entered the village.

00:08:29I could hardly believe my eyes

00:08:41when I saw a small white boy

00:08:44drop from the elephant's trunk.

00:08:46This mere slip of a child

00:08:47here in the jungle

00:08:48among the wild beast and savage tribes.

00:08:51It was uncanny.

00:08:52The end of the jungle

00:09:22just who this little jungle boy was and what strange power he held over the natives was

00:09:32beyond me Bradford and Allison lost no time in getting away

00:09:52I had made up my mind to find out who the boy was but when he left the village he disappeared

00:10:09losing track of Bradford and Allison I climbed a tree hoping to locate them

00:10:39hey Bradford met up with one of the native boys from our camp

00:10:52he was trying to get his bearings from the tree

00:11:02suddenly he became excited then I noticed why the jungle boy clinging to his elephant's trunk had

00:11:13entered the clearing

00:11:14for some unknown reason when the little fellow saw them he turned and ran back into the jungle

00:11:33on

00:11:34on

00:11:40on

00:11:42on

00:11:43on

00:11:44on

00:11:47on

00:11:48then the menace confronted Bradford by the Lions and without firearms he took

00:12:10the only means of escape

00:12:18the

00:12:20the

00:12:25the

00:12:27the

00:12:32the

00:12:33the

00:12:38the

00:12:41the

00:12:45As I watched him, I forgot the jungle boy and the fact that I too was trapped by the wild beasts.

00:12:54I noticed something moving through the undergrowth along the riverbank.

00:13:01As I watched, I wondered if the little jungle boy could possibly belong to her.

00:13:15The hippo had seen the girl on the raft.

00:13:36Then Bradford discovered the girl's danger.

00:14:00We watched the girl as the hippo swam after her.

00:14:04Unaware of her danger, she continued downstream.

00:14:14Look out! Look out!

00:14:17Look out!

00:14:27Spellbound, I watched the girl's frantic efforts to escape the onrushing brute.

00:14:37Then I saw Bradford snap into action.

00:14:47As he climbed out on the tree limb, I held my breath.

00:14:49Wondering if it would hold its weight or crash with him into the stream.

00:14:59As he climbed out on the tree limb, I held my breath, wondering if it would hold its weight or crash with him into the stream.

00:15:17.

00:15:27.

00:15:31Who was the girl?

00:15:56Where did she come from?

00:16:01Where did she come from?

00:16:31Where did she come from?

00:16:32Where did she come from?

00:16:38Where did she come from?

00:16:39The gorilla?

00:16:40There it is.

00:16:46There it is.

00:16:47Nothing there now, Colin.

00:16:48It was.

00:16:49I saw it through the window.

00:16:50It followed me here.

00:16:56I saw it through the window.

00:17:03It followed me here.

00:17:04There's nothing outside, Steve.

00:17:05I'll tell you, Morgan.

00:17:06I saw it.

00:17:07All right.

00:17:08Take it easy.

00:17:09Sure.

00:17:10Sure you did.

00:17:11Sure.

00:17:12Sure you did.

00:17:13Sure.

00:17:14Sure you did.

00:17:15There's nothing outside, Steve.

00:17:22I'll tell you, Morgan.

00:17:23I saw it.

00:17:24All right.

00:17:25Take it easy.

00:17:26Sure.

00:17:27Sure.

00:17:28Sure you did.

00:17:29You were about to tell us about the girl you saw on the raft.

00:17:30What became of her and Bradford?

00:17:31Yeah.

00:17:32Yeah.

00:17:33Yeah.

00:17:34Yeah.

00:17:35She was the daughter of an explorer.

00:17:37Her father had contracted jungle fever and lost his eyesight.

00:17:38He was stone blind.

00:17:39She was the daughter of an explorer.

00:17:40Her father had contracted jungle fever and lost his eyesight.

00:17:41He was stone blind.

00:17:42She was the daughter of an explorer.

00:17:43aos ly.

00:17:44They lived in a shack near a stream.

00:17:45Ah, they were a pair of fools just like Bradford.

00:17:46Clowns now.

00:17:47They Ka- momentos there's not been bringing быть a river.

00:17:48Here's a beach, Jack.

00:17:49Animal, you're not Jean-ний school, Mark.

00:17:55All right.

00:18:08Oh, look.

00:18:09He's locked up.

00:18:10Greg, I'm like, oh, Phil.

00:18:11We're a pair of fools just like Bradford.

00:18:15Go ahead, Steve.

00:18:17Well, then we moved over to their camp.

00:18:22We were there for months.

00:18:24Oh, but mind you, that wasn't my idea.

00:18:26Bradford insisted on it.

00:18:28One must have reasons for spending months in this forsaken country.

00:18:31They had reasons, all right.

00:18:33And a good one.

00:18:35Had a map.

00:18:36And Lou Hanley.

00:18:37The best guide in the country.

00:18:41He told me they were nearing the end of their search.

00:18:45Man alive, what were they after?

00:18:46Where were they going?

00:18:48To the cave of the Cyclops.

00:18:51Never heard of that before, have you, Morgan?

00:18:53Why, yes.

00:18:54It's been a legend around here for years.

00:18:57It's supposed to be a cave filled with untold treasures

00:19:00and guarded by the Cyclops.

00:19:03You all know what a Cyclops is supposed to be.

00:19:06Why, yes.

00:19:07Sort of an idol with one eye.

00:19:09That's right, an idol.

00:19:11And the rest of the legend is that anyone who enters the cave

00:19:14never leaves it alive.

00:19:18Hanley, the old man's guide, was to share in the Cyclops' treasure.

00:19:22That is, if they found it.

00:19:25But after Bradford rescued the girl,

00:19:29he figured that the old man to show his appreciation

00:19:31might give him the map.

00:19:33So Hanley decided to get it before that could happen.

00:19:46But Bradford, being suspicious of Hanley,

00:19:49was on the lookout.

00:19:58I had been out scouting for Allison,

00:20:00who had gone to our camp for some ammunition.

00:20:03Returning to the old man's shack,

00:20:05I decided to have a look before barging in.

00:20:08It was lucky I did.

00:20:09The End

00:20:10The End

00:20:11The End

00:20:12The End

00:20:13With the lines between me and the shack there was nothing I could do but sit tight.

00:20:43There was nothing I could do but sit tight.

00:20:50There was nothing I could do but sit tight.

00:20:58There was nothing I could do but sit tight.

00:21:05There was nothing I could do but sit tight.

00:21:14There was nothing I could do but sit tight.

00:21:20There was nothing I could do but sit tight.

00:21:29There was nothing I could do but sit tight.

00:21:35As I watched the maddened beast charged at the door I was tempted to fire my few remaining shells into their hides at the risk of turning them in my direction where I would be at their mercy.

00:22:02Then it happened.

00:22:10The door gave way and the lions crashed in.

00:22:15Then I saw Hanley dive through the window and escape into the jungle.

00:22:30Then it was over.

00:22:42Bradford had driven the beast off.

00:22:45The excitement was too much for the old man and he died soon afterwards.

00:22:51Hanley the guide disappeared.

00:22:56Bradford took the girl and started back for his own camp.

00:23:01And they left you?

00:23:02No.

00:23:03I followed them some distance behind with Carter one of the men from the old man's camp on the lookout for Hanley.

00:23:10No one trusted him and we didn't want to take any chances.

00:23:14What is all this to do with the white gorilla?

00:23:16Well I was coming to that.

00:23:18It was while we were moving through the jungle.

00:23:21I was well to the rear and Carter was some distance behind me.

00:23:28Bradford and the girl headed straight for our camp.

00:23:34As I followed after them I wondered what had become of the strange little jungle boy.

00:23:59It didn't seem possible that this child with his supernatural powers over the natives and the beasts of the jungle could be a reality.

00:24:29As I picked my way along the trail I could hear the sound of the waterfall in the ravine off to my left.

00:24:38Where the beasts of the jungle went to quench their thirst.

00:24:41Little knowing that at that very moment the jungle boy.

00:24:46While I was.

00:24:47Theicky.

00:24:49They were able to get up to the beach as we have to take many months.

00:24:51And I was not to blame them.

00:24:52They were going to kill me.

00:24:53They were like they were Cheers.

00:24:56What did you tell me?

00:24:57I was, I was both alone.

00:24:58We were just like you.

00:24:59Well, they were just a little bit.

00:25:00To be honest.

00:25:01We were just the old, they were just like you.

00:25:03Oh, you're looking for them for years.

00:25:04You were just a little bit of joy.

00:25:05I was so many, but a little bit.

00:25:06And it just looked like you're busy.

00:25:08The middle of the land, let's come and thought you were gonna be at that moment.

00:25:11I was going to take them to the ground.

00:25:13So what am I?

00:25:14The chattering of the monkeys in the trees should have warned me of my own danger.

00:25:38Unaware of the white gorilla's presence, I continued along the trail.

00:25:44To be continued...

00:26:14The outcast, sworn enemy of man, had picked his victim, Carter.

00:26:44I tried to figure out how to get Carter from the beast.

00:26:53I brought my gun to bear, fired a couple of gunshots, hoping the sound would make it.

00:27:09I tried to use the rifle as a club, but the beast with its big hands struck me down.

00:27:31Then it turned its attentions to Carter and dragged him off into the jungle.

00:27:38I was stunned and hurt.

00:27:51I tried to trail the beast, hoping I could get close enough to land a lucky shot that would

00:27:56not endanger Carter.

00:28:13The sight of the white gorilla startled the elephant bird, stampeded them.

00:28:25Hanley, who had been following Bradford's trail, crossed the aroused brute's path.

00:28:40The tiny beady eyes of the lumbering beast centered on the fleeing figure of Hanley.

00:28:45Believing him to be the cause of the disturbance, they took after him.

00:28:50By a twist of fate, he took refuge in the same hut where Bradford and the girl were waiting

00:28:55for Carter and myself.

00:28:57The tiny beady eyes of the young man was there, but the Elton

00:29:26the hut, I discovered the jungle boy and his elephant approaching.

00:29:56THE END

00:30:26Then I saw further proof of the boy's mystic powers. He had stopped the beasts from their

00:30:38deadly destruction by the call of his elephant.

00:30:41THE END

00:30:57FASCINATED BY WHAT I SAW, I FOUND MYSELF

00:31:15FASCINATED BY WHAT I SAW, I FOUND MYSELF GLUED TO THE SPOT. AGAIN THAT STRANGE LITTLE BOY AND HIS

00:31:31ELEPHANT CAME TO THE RESCUE OF BRADFORD.

00:31:33SEEING THEY WERE SAFE, MY ONLY THOUGHT WAS TO GET CARTER AND DO SOMETHING TO HELP HIM.

00:31:45LITTLE DID I KNOW AS I FOUND THE TRAIL OF THE WHITE GORILLA THROUGH THE JUNGLE, THE NATURE OF THE HUGE

00:32:03MONSTER THAT WAS TO CROSS OUR PATH.

00:32:21AS THE OUTCAST AND THE BLACK GORILLA MET, THE JUNGLE VIBRATED WITH THEIR WILD BATTLE CRY.

00:33:03SO MOVIER, AS THE MARCHES CLEAR TO STEAL THEM.

00:33:06Oh, my God.

00:33:36I found Carter where the white gorilla had dropped him.

00:33:55While the mad beasts fought to destroy each other, I carried Carter to safety.

00:34:03The game of Bradford and the girl. You said they were safe.

00:34:06Well, they...

00:34:10Well, I've never seen such solemn faces. What's happened?

00:34:16Oh, uh, this is Mr. Collins, dear. Bradford's guide.

00:34:20He was attacked by a white gorilla.

00:34:23A white gorilla?

00:34:24Yes.

00:34:25Oh, Mr. Collins, my daughter, Ruth.

00:34:28I'm very glad to meet you, but I can say that I'm glad to see you here in the jungle.

00:34:32You know, this is no place for a lady.

00:34:35Oh, she's perfectly safe here. Go ahead and tell us what happened to Bradford and the girl.

00:34:39Yes, uh, sit down, Ruth.

00:34:41It's all right. Go ahead.

00:34:43Well, I brought Carter to a friendly native village where I learned that the jungle boy, with the aid of a friendly roving band of Arabs, had taken Bradford and the girl.

00:34:56Hanley had followed them.

00:35:06He planned to get rid of Bradford before making another attempt to find the cave of the Cyclops.

00:35:11Hanley had a friend among the natives.

00:35:14He enlisted him on his side against the whites.

00:35:17A trail of blood from a freshly killed small boar was to be the bait for a trap from which there could be no escape.

00:35:25No escape.

00:36:21Oh, my God.

00:36:51Oh, my God.

00:37:21As the hungry lions continued their attack, I thanked my lucky stars for the decision

00:37:41I made, never to be caught too close to Bradford as long as Hanley roamed the jungle.

00:37:45The one thing Hanley overlooked when he conceived his plan to kill Bradford and the girl was

00:38:00the little jungle boy.

00:38:02Oh, my God.

00:38:04Oh, my God.

00:38:07Oh, my God.

00:38:09Oh, my God.

00:38:16Oh, my God.

00:38:18Oh, my God.

00:38:19Oh, my God.

00:38:22Oh, my God.

00:38:32Oh, my God.

00:38:35Oh, my God.

00:38:39Bradford, the girl and the boy, were among the few to escape the beast's attack.

00:38:57I found Hanley's body just outside the village, a victim of his own plot.

00:39:06How terrible.

00:39:07Yes, but how lucky they had the jungle boy on their side.

00:39:11Strange, a boy like that wandering around loose.

00:39:14I heard of him before.

00:39:16To the natives, he's taboo.

00:39:18That's right.

00:39:19I found out later why when I trailed a girl in Bradford to his camp.

00:39:23I discovered that the cave of the Cyclops was only a few miles from our camp.

00:39:29The woman was the mother of the little jungle boy.

00:39:32Her years in the jungle had taught her that the natives believed the insane, harmless, and

00:39:35possessed untold powers.

00:39:38One of feeble mind was safe from all harm.

00:39:42To the natives, taboo.

00:39:44To protect herself and the boy, she pretended to be just that, insane.

00:39:50Known as Tiger men, the natives who inhabited the Cyclops cave worshipped the idols there.

00:39:57Discovering this, the woman secretly hollowed out one of them and taught the boy to lower and raise the idols' arms at her command.

00:40:06This display of her supposedly supernatural powers gave the woman control over the natives, so far as her own and the boy's safety was concerned.

00:40:16When the Tiger men informed her that white people were encamped close by, she ordered them brought to the cave,

00:40:24secretly hoping through them to effect the escape of herself and the boy from the jungle.

00:40:54The beasts of the jungle seemed to sense that something unusual was about to happen.

00:41:01The Tiger men surrounded Bradford's camp and proceeded to carry out the woman's orders.

00:41:06The Tiger men surrounded Bradford's camp and proceeded to carry out the woman's orders.

00:41:13The Tiger men surrounded Bradford's camp and proceeded to carry out the woman's orders.

00:41:21The Tiger men surrounded Bradford's camp and proceeded to carry out the woman's orders.

00:41:24The Tiger men surrounded Bradford's camp and proceeded to carry out the woman's orders.

00:41:28The Tiger men surrounded Bradford's camp and Luca life is not the country for her inability to combat their wrists and mort Investigations.

00:41:44The Tiger men played Su comfortably in the oppression of my 어머came Her arms against the fortress stream.

00:41:48The Tiger men surrounded Bradford's camp and��도 misma as his Об 快otions was outta my own.

00:41:52When the Tigermen returned with their prisoners,

00:42:20the woman realized that something was wrong.

00:42:23She had ordered them brought in to her, but not this way.

00:42:44The Tigermen had plans of their own,

00:42:47plans to sacrifice the whites to starve,

00:42:50imprison, maddened killers.

00:42:59I had been scouting near the cave,

00:43:01and from where I was hidden near the entrance,

00:43:03I could see the frantic efforts of the woman

00:43:05as she tried to stop the sacrifice.

00:43:07The little jungle boy entering the cave saw what was about to take place.

00:43:21As fast as his little legs could carry him,

00:43:23he ran to his place in the idol.

00:43:25He worked the arms and forced the image to breathe

00:43:27in an effort to save the whites.

00:43:29Alone,

00:43:49single-handed,

00:43:59I knew I could do nothing.

00:44:01I managed to get away without being seen,

00:44:04praying and hoping to find help that they would still be alive.

00:44:09As I made my way through the jungle,

00:44:21I became aware that I was being followed by an animal of some kind.

00:44:25ということ

00:44:31supported by an eid

00:44:35to sacrifice act

00:44:41with the Saiyan

00:44:47central

00:44:50the

00:44:54Then I saw the beast, it was the white gorilla, the outcast, the scourge of the jungle, seemed

00:45:09to know my gun had jammed.

00:45:20I backed away. He came at me, closer and closer.

00:45:32When he jumped me, I thought it was the end. He mauled me with his brute strength and ponderous

00:45:38weight.

00:45:44Suddenly, something caused him to stop. It was the black monster.

00:45:49His eyes burning with hate for the white outcast.

00:45:56Again, the jungle vibrated as the two beasts met.

00:46:08Again, the jungle vibrated as the two beasts met.

00:46:20The jungle vibrated.

00:46:25The jungle vibrated.

00:46:30The jungle vibrated.

00:46:36The End

00:47:06I watched them as they fought.

00:47:36With every bone in my body aching, I limped away.

00:47:53With every bone in my body aching, I limped away.

00:48:23Staggered through the jungle, I hoped against hope that the brutes would kill each other

00:48:28as they fought.

00:48:29I kept on going, and then...

00:48:32That's it.

00:48:40Well, you all know the rest.

00:48:43It's a wonder you're still alive.

00:48:44You know, it still may not be too late to help those people in the cave.

00:48:48Do you think it possible, Collins?

00:48:50Well, there is a chance that we start now.

00:48:52We should be able to make it by daylight.

00:48:54You're not going.

00:48:56Ruth, stay here and look after them.

00:49:00And remember, under no condition, leave the post.

00:49:04I won't, Dad, but how are you going to find the place?

00:49:07Uh, Steve, what's the shortest route to the cave?

00:49:10Well, when you leave the post, you go due north to the river.

00:49:15And you follow the old elephant trail to the left.

00:49:18Well, just keep on going.

00:49:19You won't miss it.

00:49:20But...

00:49:21But what?

00:49:22Look out for the white gorilla.

00:49:24Remember, don't leave the post.

00:49:27I understand, Dad.

00:49:28Well, I think you'd better sit down here

00:49:38and let me see if I can't clean up these scratches.

00:49:40I don't know.

00:50:10Well, your shoulder certainly looks a lot better this morning, Mr. Collins.

00:50:29Well, thanks to you, I feel a little better, all except my leg.

00:50:32We'll take care of that right now. Let's see it.

00:50:34Missy! Missy! Missy!

00:50:37Missy! What little girl get lost in jungle?

00:50:39Till she know, come back.

00:50:41You stay here, Mr. Collins. You're in no condition to leave. I'll go.

00:50:44But your father told you not to leave the post.

00:50:46I won't go far. I'll just go to the edge of the post ground.

00:50:49But, Miss Stacey...

00:50:50You stay here, my ma. Fix bandage on leg. Understand?

00:50:59Me understand.

00:51:00All right.

00:51:09All right, Mama.

00:51:16Missy, like me, fix it.

00:51:26Somehow I knew I was wrong when I allowed the girl to leave the post.

00:51:30The restlessness that prevailed through the jungle should have been a warning to her that danger was near.

00:51:35No one's not bad.

00:51:36Me.

00:51:36Oh, my.

00:51:40No one's not bad.

00:51:43No one's not bad.

00:51:44Well, if somebody did it, I'm afraid it was right needed.

00:51:54No one's not bad.

00:51:56No one's not bad.

00:51:59Oh, my God.

00:52:29Oh, my God.

00:52:59Oh, my God.

00:53:29Oh, my God.

00:53:59The outcast seemed to sense that there was something different about this victim.

00:54:12Oh, my God.

00:54:42The stillness of the unconscious girl puzzled him.

00:54:59When I found her rifle, I knew something had happened.

00:55:11As the beast heard me, he turned and faced me with all his pent of anger.

00:55:19I knew this time it was my life for his.

00:55:22Oh, my God.

00:55:23Oh, my God.

00:55:31Oh, my God.

00:55:34Oh, my God.

00:55:41Oh, my God.

00:55:43Oh, my God.

00:55:47Oh, my God.

00:55:50Oh, my God.

00:56:20When I found she was unharmed, I couldn't understand.

00:56:25Oh, I don't know how to thank you, Mr. Collins.

00:56:51Well, it's the other way around.

00:56:52I'm grateful to you.

00:56:54I killed the white gorilla.

00:56:56Oh, but what happened to the child that I didn't find?

00:57:00Well, we had barely left the compound when it wandered back.

00:57:03Oh, that's good.

00:57:04Oh, but don't tell father.

00:57:09Don't tell him what?

00:57:14Well, you'll find out anyway from the natives, so I might just as well tell you.

00:57:17Tell me what?

00:57:32Well, you see, a native child got lost, and I went looking for it, and well, I...

00:57:37She ran it to an old enemy of mine, the white gorilla.

00:57:41I killed it.

00:57:42The white gorilla?

00:57:44Did you find the cave of the Cyclops?

00:57:46Were you able to help some of the people?

00:57:48We found the cave all right, but in the tiger's pit, there were nothing but bones.

00:57:52Tigers were the only living things there.

00:57:54And winds up our trip, our search is through.

00:57:56That's right.

00:57:57We'll leave as soon as we can.

00:57:58And we'll be soon to be going home, dear.

00:58:12Well, Steve, that leaves just the two of us.

00:58:19Uh-uh.

00:58:21Just you.

00:58:26I'm going with you.

00:58:28You?

00:58:32After all these years, you're going to leave the jungle?

00:58:37Yeah.

00:58:44After all, we have no right to the jungle.

00:58:47Belongs to the natives.

00:58:50Birds, animals.

00:58:52They've been here since time began.

00:58:55In a way, they have a right to protest our intrusion.

00:58:59It was theirs before we came.

00:59:02And it should be theirs now.

00:59:04You know, if you're kind of sorry I had to kill that white gorilla,

00:59:10he seemed almost human.

00:59:14Pathetic.

00:59:14Standing there, wondering what had happened to him.

00:59:28His death seemed to cast a spell of loneliness over the jungle.

00:59:33The wild cries and mad roars of the beast have suddenly quieted.

00:59:38A silent tribute to his passing.

00:59:40And the black gorilla, the monster with his huge chest filled with hate.

01:00:05I can almost see him as he discovers the white outcast lying there as though sleeping.

01:00:23His efforts to make him do battle.

01:00:43And then the change.

01:00:46His bewilderment as he looks at the motionless figure.

01:00:50A sort of human emotion that comes over him.

01:00:55Then the slow realization.

01:00:58The outcast is dead.

01:01:01Then the animal instinct returns.

01:01:06The instinct to cover up and hide the remains of a fallen one from the scavengers of the jungle.

01:01:12A gesture for forgiveness as he chants the death call for the outcast of his race.
