Plot
The Stooges, employed as choreographers by B.O. Pictures, are tasked with imparting dance skills to the indigenous population of the fictional Pacific island of Rarabonga. This endeavor is orchestrated by the studio's president, Mr. Baines, who has procured the island for his upcoming musical production. However, upon their arrival, the Stooges discover that the islanders, under the sway of the malevolent witch doctor Varanu, are cannibalistic headhunters with no knowledge of dancing.
