What happens

Jungle Hell is a 1955 American film written, produced and directed by Norman A. Cerf. The film was made from episode fragments of an unsold television pilot starring Sabu entitled Jungle Boy. Sabu fought against the low-budget film's release. Additional footage of a flying saucer was added to the film in the 1960s with narration. (from Wikipedia, CC BY-SA)
