An Original Vintage Austrian Film Program (measures 6" x 9" [15 x 23 cm]; 8 pages) (Learn More)

Ingagi ("Gorilla"), the 1931 William Campbell Africa exploitation jungle adventure thriller ("The Wonder Film! See... animals half ape half human, wild woman, gorillas unbelievable, the queen half breed child... A million thrills from heart of African jungle"; "See the gorilla hunt and finding of creatures apparently half ape - half human. The Elephant charge. The cornering of 3 lions. The Rino charge into the camera."; this movie was a complete hoax, because it was presented as a pseudo-documentary, and was supposedly shot on location in Africa with nude native women and gorillas, but in actuality it was shot in Brooklyn with fake natives and even faker gorillas!; But the public didn't care, because female nudity was rarely seen in 1931, and the movie grossed millions in 1931 dollars!) starring Sir Hubert Winstead, Daniel Swayne, Charles Gemora (in the title role as Ingagi, the gorilla!), Arthur Clayton, and narrated by Louis Nizor. Note that this film is connected to the 1934 film Kidnapping Gorillas (which features footage from Ingagi) and the 1937 film Love Life of a Gorilla (which may also feature footage from this film). Also, note that there was a 1940 movie with an all-black cast called "Son of Ingagi", but it had no connection to this movie whatsoever. Finally, note that starting in 1929 and continuing into the 1940s, Charles Gemora played gorillas in many movies, likely because he owned a gorilla suit, and could do a somewhat convincing job portraying a gorilla. Just a few years later, Ray 'Crash' Corrigan would also start playing gorillas, and no doubt they competed for roles in every movie requiring a gorilla!
Important Added Info: Note that we have never before auctioned this Austrian program! Also note that this item contains some nudity, so we have placed a white bar over those areas for those who are bothered by such images. Of course, the actual item does not have the white bars.
