Jitter Bughouse was an American comedy short released by Columbia Pictures on March 20, 1947, starring Joe DeRita, Christine McIntyre and Emil Sitka. This was the fourth and final entry in the Joe DeRita series produced by Columbia from 1946-1948; all entries were remakes of other Columbia shorts. Sitka was at the time also a frequent supporting player in Columbia's Three Stooges short-film series; DeRita himself would join the Stooges in the late 1950s, becoming "Curly Joe" DeRita.
