Movie review - Jungle Jim#11 - "Valley of the Headhunters" (1953) **1/2

 Jim's boss, Kingston, wants Jim to help a government agent attain mineral rights to a tribal land, but the baddies want oil. What is the difference? Old Jim/Tarzan would have wanted to protect the land. This one is very pro development.

There's decent acting, some fake headhunters, dicey racial politics, Tamba the chimp gets drunk. A solid entry.

An angel of the Lord appeared to them, and the glory of the Lord shone around them, and they were terrified. But the angel said to them, "Do not be afraid. I bring you good news that will cause great joy for all the people: some new Jungle Jim reviews!"
