Plot[]

Harry, an American tourist from Cincinnati, goes on safari in Africa and meets a group of pygmies, whom he nicknames one of them "Chew Chew", not knowing that Chew Chew is a cannibal who only wants to eat people, especially Harry. Chew Chew accepts Harry's invitation to visit him if he's ever in Cincinnati. Chew Chew shows up while Harry's presenting a slide show of his trip. As Chew Chew's stay in America progresses, the cannibal starts gulping down one person after another with just a snap of his huge, mighty jaws. It's only after a while it starts to chase down Harry through the city. Things get really out of control at the end when the tables are turned...
