Synopsis
In the Belgian Congo, a savage gorilla terrorizes a wild animal preserve and kills three women. The village witch doctor declares the terror to be the vengeance of the gods, who must be appeased by the sacrifice of the village's newest born. Antagonizing the witch doctor, the warden promises to rid the village of the beast. He is aided by a young woman journalist, who is doing a story on the natives. While overcoming many obstacles and successfully completing the hunt, they fall in love. Before she returns home, they promise to meet again.
