My rating: 4/10

Will I watch it again? No.

Here's a yawner of a jungle tale only we're out of the jungle and into the Middle East in two shakes of a monkey's tail...just like its predecessor.  This is the sequel to LIANE, JUNGLE GODDESS (1956) and for some reason the English dub has everyone calling her Diana.  Why they can't make a damn picture like this that takes place entirely in the jungle is beyond me.

Say, is that native in blackface?

Yup.  Wow!


Naturally Liane/Diana is out of her element when removed from the jungle and she can't defend herself so she needs a man to do all of the saving for her.  She gets kidnapped by the bad guys only to be rescued by Frank (Hoven) in literally the final 10 seconds of the picture at which time the music swells and the end credits roll.  This was pretty dull stuff.  At least the first one had Liane naked when she was in the jungle.  Fortunately this franchise ended here.
