Story[]

Ragtag bunch of misfits goes on an expedition in Darkest Africa. The aged, foppish Professor Inigo Tingle along with two friends hopes to find the Oozlum bird and the posh Lady Evelyn Bagley, who hopes to find her missing husband Walter who mysteriously disappeared in the jungle many years ago. The group is faced with certain death after they are apprehended by a cannibalistic tribe in the jungle.

As they wait to be put to death, they are suddenly ‘rescued’ by the all-female Lubby-Dubby tribe, led by the beautiful Leda. They are taken to the lost land of Aphrodisia and meet the king of the tribe Tonka, who turns out to be Lady Bagley's missing husband Walter who was taken to Aphrodisia women to repopulate their tribe.

The Lubby-Dubbies need the menfolk to save themselves from extinction, as no males have been born in Aphrodisia for over a century, only women. The men think their dreams have come true... until Leda makes it clear that the Lubby-Dubby women have no intention of letting them go. Tonka says that the last man who tried to escape Aphrodisia was murdered by the tribe.

Lady Bagley ensures her husband (Tonka) assigns the men are the least attractive women in the tribe. Three months pass and the men now are exhausted and Leda is outraged that none of their "mates" have gotten pregnant, so she deposes Tonka and assumes her place as queen, threatening harm to the men. A group pf soldiers arrive to save the men and fire on the Lubby-Dubbies. The soldiers are inadvertently trampled by elephants while the men escape. After the chaos, Leda and her army chase after the men, but are now more interested in the trampled soldiers. She says to let the others go not needing them now that they have "some real men."
