Tarzan And The She Devil (1953)
An unsavory group of ivory poachers (Monique Van Vooren, Raymond Burr, Tom Conway) are hampered in their attempts to harvest the ivory by Tarzan (Lex Barker). So they decide to kidnap Jane (Joyce MacKenzie) in order to control Tarzan. Barker's final appearance as Edgar Rice Burroughs' ape man is a painless if unmemorable affair. It's the trio of villains who hold our attention here, especially Burr's sadistic and brutal white hunter. Van Vooren as the "bad" girl isn't really a "she devil" at all, just a greedy hard as a rock babe. Barker as Tarzan doesn't have much to do but mope and look sad. Directed by Kurt Neumann (SON OF ALI BABA). With Henry Brandon and Mara Corday.
