Should you see it? Don't make it a priority.
“It is not the critic who counts; not the man who points out how the strong man stumbles, or where the doer of deeds could have done them better. The credit belongs to the man who is actually in the arena, whose face is marred by dust and sweat and blood; who strives valiantly; who errs, who comes short again and again, because there is no effort without error and shortcoming; but who does actually strive to do the deeds."

Mistress of the Apes (1979)
How bad is it? It's like "Bride of the Gorilla," but directed by Larry Buchanan - so it's pretty bad.
Should you see it? Don't make it a priority.
A woman searches for her lost husband in the jungles of Africa, only to encounter a group of "near men" who've just lost their last female member. They have long hair, loincloths and some bad ugly make-up. She studies them and decides that she prefers them to the men back home. It's amazingly well-photographed for a Buchanan film, but there's not much plot or characterization (or anything else) and the make-up effects are maybe good for one chuckle.
