TARZAN THE TIGER
15 CHAPTER SERIAL
1929
One of those rare Tarzan Films / Serials that is actually based on one of Edgar Rice Boroughs later Tarzan Books.
PLOT:
After Tarzan's estate is destroyed by Arabs Jane is sold into slavery by a man posing as a friendly scientist. Tarzan develops amnesia after a blow to the head. When he recovers his memory (from a later blow) he defeats the villain, recovers the fabulous jewels of Opar, and rescues Jane.
This is an excellent adaptation of the book, Tarzan and the Jewels of Opar. Frank Merrill's classically handsome features and lithe, muscular body make him a fine Tarzan visually; his vine-swinging and elephant riding are unparalleled in the movies; and the script allows him to be the refined, educated Tarzan of the books, at least initially (until he loses his memory.) This is an exciting serial, full of action and with great sets and scenery.
The only question you might ask is: As tigers are only found in Asia, why Tarzan and the Tiger? However, this mistake was actually made by Edgar Rice Burroughs himself when he wrote the Tarzan books and put tigers in Africa.
