Directed by Tod Browning
My rating: 2 stars out of 4

Chaney is in somewhat of a normal role (for him anyway) as a wild animal catcher in China. His daughter falls for the son of his business partner, but Chaney objects not because of the boy but because of his own past, which soon reappears. His ex-wife is a no-good, exotic man eater, and she sets her sights on none other than her own daughter's fiance. The young boy melts at the mere sight of her, unable to resist. They try to hide it for awhile, but when Chaney finds out he goes ballistic. "Gorillas never forget those who harmed them" becomes an important plot point, for which it receives an automatic rating deduction from me for any movie containing a man in a gorilla suit.
