Being a huge Presley fan, it is absolutely depressing to see Elvis appear in such blatant nonsense as this. It's obvious why Elvis hated most of the movies he appeared in, and Harum Scarum has to be his worst film, hands down. The acting is terrible, as is the plot and songs. It's a shame Presley spent most of the 60s wasting his time on crap like this when he could've used his talent to create more great music or at least appear in films that warranted some merit. Unfortunately much of the blame has to lie with Elvis himself. Had he stood his ground and refused to take part in movies this bad, he may have dug his way out of the comedy/musical grind. But then, you can't really call this a comedy musical either, because it isn't funny and the music stinks!
