    "Africa Screams" is not Abbott and Costello's best movie, but it is a funny movie and I enjoyed watching it. Hey, It is a Abbott and Costello's movie. I grew up watching These Abbott and Costello's movie on a Saturday. As part of the cast of this is Shemp Howard and Joe Besser, a...( read more)t differnt times, they were one of the "Three Stooges". I like the very beginning of the movie with Stanley Livingston (Lou Costello) acting like a big African safari hunter, in the bookstore, trying to tame a little kitty and beginning scare of it. Any Abbott and Costello's movie is good to watch just like this one.

    Quite an enjoyable film, but not as good as what Abbott & Costello have done before.
