Jungle Hell is a 1955 American film written and directed by Norman A. Cerf.[1] The film was made from several episodes of an unsold television pilot starring Sabu entitled Jungle Boy. Sabu fought to not release the film. Additional footage of a flying saucer was added to the film in the 1960s with narration.[2]

Plot

Dr. Morrison has been sent into the jungles of India to investigate reports about a strange set of burning rocks, which have left many natives with radiation burns. With Jungle Boy (Sabu) as his assistant, Morrison gives the natives medical treatment, angering the local holy man (or "witch doctor"), who perceives Morrison as a threat to his power and influence over the natives. In the course of uncovering the mystery, the Doctor, Jungle Boy and other explorers encounter what appear to be flying saucers, the sources of the radiation.
