Me Tarzan, You Jane, Him Cheetah. Lex Barker dons the Tarzan trunks for the second time in what is a fun Tarzan adventure, even if it’s just a bit too crammed with intentions for its own good. Vanessa Brown slips into Jane’s short jungle skirt and Denise Darcel is also on hand to provide some extra sex pheromones; and to indulge in a girl on girl scrap with Jane! Cool! Plot is basically Tarzan out to rescue a bunch of femme natives from the clutches of some mad culty tribesmen led by Hurd Hatfield. There’s a jungle disease issue to take care of as well, Cheetah’s (owning the movie unsurprisingly) alcohol problem, and of course there’s some baddies to be dispensed with which allows Barker to use his athleticism to great effect. Tarzan gets to be vocal, well more a case of muffled utterances really, and Lee Sholem directs it with economical assuredness. Come the end, baddies vanquished, Jane and Cheetah are smiling, and this Greystoke bloke is a hero again. Hooray! Good solid wholesome Tarzan froth. 6/10
