B-
Both Denny Miller and Janos Prohaska return in this second collaboration between Sidney A. Mandel and Roy Kammerman. This time Miller is an actor pretending to be Tongo the Ape-Man, while Prohaska is again an Ape, although this costume looks more like an orangutan than the gorilla the script claims it is. I find it a bit much for Tongo to be carrying around a tape recorder in his simple costume, although I guess it's supposed to clue in the audience more easily than if he had a diary. And he has to leave something behind to give away that he speaks English.
