    Storyline

    • Trivia
      Due to many budget cutbacks following the death of Irving Thalberg many stock shots from former movies were used.
    • Goofs
      The fish the Jane prepares for dinner is covered in lemon slices. What few lemons there are in Africa are only grown in South Africa, a distance of almost 3000 miles from the isolated area that was most likely Tarzan's escarpment.

    More evil white guys invade jungle.

    Well-paced and -produced jungle adventure with an heroic Weissmuller, a fetching O'Sullivan and a better-than-average supporting cast. I could have done without seeing the stock footage of Weissmuller battling that croc for the third time though. Not one of the best Tarzan adventures, but you could do a lot worse.
