Wongo Women


Mr. Fury got third male billing and a speaking part in the lamentable 1958 movie, The Wild Women of Wongo.  He played Gahbo, one of the men of Goona, an island ruled by fat, ugly women.  They get raided by the beautiful women of Wongo who are tired of their boring males and looking for fresh meat, which they find in abundance on Goona.  By the time it's all over (not soon enough), Wongo and Goona have agreed to a mass wife/husband swap endorsed at the Great Dragon Temple.  This picture was so bad that Ed Fury was one of only two cast members to ever appear on film again, and the other, a female, only had one subsequent role.  Brace yourself, here's the Queen of Goona:


Is it any wonder that Ed Fury left the country not long after this atrocity came out?

  1. That description had me laughing out loud. It makes the cheesy British Hammer Horror films look the last word in sophistication. You can just imagine the feminist backlash today... if someone dared to dare. Hilarious!

    1. I was hoping someone would appreciate the description. We're not supposed to reference women as fat or ugly anymore, but I couldn't help myself.
