Tarzan's Revenge (1938)

An American adventure film directed by D. Ross Lederman, starring Glenn Morris and Eleanor Holm.
A young woman who is engaged to be married goes on a jungle safari with her boyfriend and parents. A rich man on the boat to the jungle invites this woman to be his hundredth wife and she turns him down. He then decides to follow the safari. When everyone gets to the jungle, a wild man there meets the woman and the two of them fall in love.
Out of the three Tarzan films that I got, this is the best one. The plot was simple and most of the characters were a little shallow, but the style was worth it. Eleanor Holm definitely gets some ultra-conservative '30s female anatomy points. The audio and video showed their age, but didn't look bad. I thought the pacing was spot on and the soundtrack was actually enjoyable. The general presentation was very clear and it was always obvious what was happening. I'm rating this adequate because I think they did a good job of making it.
