Movie review - Jungle Jim#9 - "Voodoo Tiger" (1952) **1/2

 This adventure feels more crowded than usual - there's lots of characters in the movie, many of them Jim's allies which makes it seem easier for him.

The script writer throws in a bunch of stuff: Jean Byron on an expedition, a former Nazi, an opening sacrifice sequence, Commissioner Kingston again, a valley of headhunters, a nasty hunter, a heroic major to hook up with Byron.

Weismuller was trimmer in the earlier JJ movies it seems. It's bright enough, done with energy. Weismuller looks like  a sexual harrasser but I may be doing the man a disservice.
