II GREKT BILL IT THE
LIBERTY THEATRE THIS
EVENING. 10 FEATURES
Two fine features, five and six
reels, tonight at the Liberty theatre.
Cannibals, pygmies with poison ar
rows, and veritable missing links,
will be at the Liberty theatre when
“The Gorilla Hunt”, Ben Burbridge’s
terrfie thriller for F. B. 0., opens
tonight only.
To make the picture Ben Bur
bridge, the greatest American hunt
er since Roosevelt, spent two years
in the most pestilent corner of the
globe. Two yeaTs in a country in
fested by the dreaded “Black Mam- j
ba”, the most virulent of snakes,
whose slightest bite is death, and a
certain and cruel one. Two years
where monstrous pythons, 50 feet in
length, and tiny three feet Batwa
pygmies wth deadly poisoned arrows,
make the forest aisles avenues of
horror. A land where both men and
beasts are man-eaters, and where
monstrous apes, the “missing links
of science,” have their horrific reign.
Truly a land of horror and pestilence.
But in “The Gorilla Hunt”, Bur
bridge has his reward, he has
brought back to civilisation a really
human document of life is so cheap
that it may actually be bought for a
pinch of salt.
The film is the greatest motion
picture ever made in the darksome
wilderness of the African jungles,
and the only one showing the gigan
tic aperaan, in the everlasting twi-1
light of their native homes, on misty
Mount Mikeno, deep-set in the heart
of the mighty Congo country, where
few* men have even penetrated.
And the other feature is “Bred in
Old Kentucky” with Viola Dana.
Sparkling with all her natural vi
vacty and powerful emotional appeal.
Of all the stars of the screen, few
have the charming personality or
the host of admirers that Viola Dana
possesses. The petite little star is
further aided by a delightful and'
novel story of the race track, with
plenty of action and humor to offset
the pathos, and a swift and dramatic
climax. Director Eddie Dillon has
achieved a highly creditable piece of
work in his deft treatment of the
story, and splendid support is given
by the cast.
