TARZAN AND THE TRAPPERS
1958

Starring Gordon Scott, Eve Brent, Rickie Sorensen and Lesley Bradley.
The movie was filmed as three pilot episodes for a television series which were edited into a feature film when the project was abandoned, and so was released in black and white rather than coloUr, like other contemporary Tarzan films. The film did finally appear on television, but only in 1966.

PLOT:
The idyllic jungle life of Tarzan, Jane and Tartu is interrupted by a drum message telling them of predatory hunters loose in the jungle. Tarzan disrupts the animal-collecting expedition of the hunters, Schroeder and Rene; he frees a baby elephant whose mother they have killed and then leads the elephant herd against them when they make hostages of Tartu and Cheeta the chimp. Afterwards he warns off two other hunters, Sikes and Lapin, seeking to plunder the lost city of Zarbo...
