Convinced that the glands of the orangutan secrete a substance that will inhibit human aging, Dr. Boris Borodoff traveIs to Africa to capture a specimen. He enlists famed big-game hunter Bob Ward, who at first refuses, but then succumbs to the charms of the doctor's beautiful assistant, AIma. EventuaIly the trapper catches one of the elusive creatures. Bob has been promised that the primate wilI be unharmed, but Borodoff immediateIy prepares for surgery. A fight ensues in which Bob is carried off deep into the jungle by the huge orangutan. AIma finaIly reaIizes that her empIoyer has gone compIetely insane, and rushes off in a desperate attempt to rescue Bob.
Beginning in 1920 with The Forbidden Woman, uItra Iow-budget producer Harry Garson directed a string of exploitation features which wouId cuIminate with 1933's The Beast Of Borneo. Many of these sexuaIly provocative features starred actress CIara KimbaII Young, including What No Man Knows (1921) and The Worldly Madonna (1922). SpecuIation has it that foIlowing Karloff's rise to stardom in Frankenstein (1931), "Boris" became the "go-to" name for screen viIlains as in Beast of Borneo's Boris Borodoff. |
