Movie review – Tarzan #21 – “Tarzan and the Trappers” (1958) *

Apparently this was meant to be a television series but the sponsors didn’t go for it – so Sol Lesser cobbled together the three episodes that had been made and released them as a feature. Jane (Eve Brent) and Boy equivalent have hardly anything to do. The plot is traditional: fighting trappers and someone looks for a lost city. Zzzzzz.

The only remotely interesting this about this film are when Tarzan rides a giraffe and the fact that Tarzan is helping out a black friend of his. Dull, badly acted and with low production values – and in black and white, too.
