"Klaas Van Gelder (Paul Cavanagh), owner of a rubber plantation in the jungles of South America, dies after a fight with his manager, Barney Chavez (Raymond Burr), over the attentions Chavez has been paying to his wife, Dina (Barbara Payton). Chavez fakes the nature of his employer's death, ascribing it to snake bite. But Van Gelder's old servant woman knows that Barney is directly responsible for the death of her master. She spikes his drink with a poison that turns him into a gorilla at night. "
