Tarzan the Ape Man 01/09/24
The Warner Archive Collection
Blu-ray
Hopefully this release is just the beginning of a new WAC series of Tarzan remasters. The original pre-Code classic has everything we want: innocent/lustful sex in the jungle, terrific work from Johnny Weissmuller & Maureen O’Sullivan, bloody savagery . . . plus race attitudes stuck in the white supremacist 19th century. The monkey acrobatics and animal mayhem are non-stop. You TOO will see the dreaded Mutia Escarpment, and the forbidden Lost Elephant’s Graveyard! Olympic swimmer Weissmuller scores big as the sound era’s first bare-chested pulp action hero. Watch out for that Tree! On Blu-ray from The Warner Archive Collection.
