    • Trivia
      Re-titled The Double Crossed Fool, this film was first purchased for telecast in New York City in mid-1948 by WPIX (Channel 11), as part of their newly acquired series of three dozen Hal Roach feature film productions, originally released theatrically between 1931 and 1943, and now being syndicated for television broadcast by Regal Television Pictures. However, no record of WPIX ever showing the film has been found. Its earliest documented telecasts were in New York City 5 July 1949 on WJZ (Channel 7), who picked up the Roach package after WPIX was finished with it, in Salt Lake City Wednesday 13 July 1949 on WDYL (Channel 4), and in Detroit Thursday 22 September 1949 on WXYZ (Channel 7).

    Not as good as the first film
    Nazty Nuisance (1943)

    * 1/2 (out of 4)

    Hal Roach comedy is a sequel to The Devil With Hitler has Hitler, Suki Yaki and Mussolini traveling to a deserted island to sign a deal with an Arab but there's an American sailor there who has his own plans. This here comes as a real disappointment because I really enjoyed the previous film for its rather unique story. As with that film, this one here runs 44-minutes but there are only a couple laughs. There's one huge laugh where Hitler is fed soup with a box of pepper in it but outside of this scene there's really not much going on.
