TARZAN'S DESERT MYSTERY / Sol Lesser Productions - 1943

It's Freaky Forties Friday with Tabonga, here at The Dungeon!.. We gots a weird one featuring Tarzan, Boy, chimpanzee pal, Cheetah, Nazis, giant lizards, man-eating plants and... A giant SPIDER! Oh, Hell yeah!

Eegah!! sent over a fun lil' soundclip for us to hear, sooooo, you can push the big red 'GO' button there by the monster mover, NOW, Rufus The Gnat! Here's our audio offering for... TARZAN'S DESERT MYSTERY!

Tarzan is so well known by now that Jane can have her letters to him dropped off by parachute! Boy reads it for Tarzan...

Jane, who's currently nursing British troops, asks Tarzan to help in obtaining a malaria serum extractable from plants in a distant jungle region.

Tarzan interrupts the show at an oasis and chases off the customers because he thinks the girl's in danger, but, she wasn't! Now, he's stuck with her for the rest of the adventure. Nancy (THE BAD SEED) Kelly plays American desert entertainer Connie Bryce.

Cheetah shows off for the crowd with his tight rope walking prowess!

Tarzan's framed and thrown in jail, so, Boy comes up with a plan for him to escape...

Only to be followed by Nazis in a dust storm.

When they arrive at the mysterious jungle, Tarzan sees giant lizards roaming around!

Boy and Connie are discovered by the Nazis so they run into the jungle, there, they find a creepy hidden cave.

Cheetah informs Tarzan that Boy and Connie are in big trouble!

Gee, I wonder what they're looking at?!..

On the way to helping, Tarzan gets all tangled up in some man-eating plants! Believe it or don't, Tarzan does his yell and an elephant shows up to gets him out of the mess!!

The head Nazi finds the two in the cave and gets ready to shoot them, but Big T pushes him into the giant web instead!!..

Justice is served!!.. The head Nazi gets his brain sucked out of his skull!

Parting shot from our little buddy, Cheetah!

  1. How often do Jungle Jim and Tarzan run into dinosaurs in the lost valley, or man-eating planets, or giant spiders? But I love it each and every time!
