The original title was intended to be "White Woman of the Lost Jungle". It was changed when produced Herman Cohen wanted to exploit Bela Lugosi's involvement.

Released in October 1952, this film attempted to take advantage of the very successful Dean Martin-Jerry Lewis films: My Friend Irma (1949), My Friend Irma Goes West (1950), At War with the Army (1950), That's My Boy (1951), Sailor Beware (1952) and Jumping Jacks (1952).

Duke Mitchell and Sammy Petrillo both receive "introducing" credits.

Duke Mitchell: You know, someday I'm gonna let you fry in your own grease!

Sammy Petrillo: This looks like Death not only took a holiday, but he got a hangover from taking it.

Duke Mitchell: Don't mind my friend. He has a one-syllable brain.
