“Jungle Jitters” (1938)

This one tends to get singled out as the most racist and the worst of the “Censored Eleven.” I don’t agree. While this is far from a good short, it does at least have some decent gags and it has the good sense to caricaturize the non-black characters as well. But honestly, that’s the only credit I’m willing to give this short, because while its not awful, it’s not good either. The setup for the premise takes way too long and some of the gags also go on for far too long. And the main character is so annoying, that you’re begging for the cannibals to eat him. While it may not quite deserve its reputation as the worst of the eleven, that’s not saying much.

Rating: 2/5
