Tarzan Triumphs

Image from Wikipedia

Tarzan Triumphs is a 1943 Johnny Weissmuller film in which Tarzan fights Nazis. You can watch it here, but honestly unless you're a completist I don't know why you would.

    My father-in-law was a Tarzan fan. Especially these old ones. I think I have seen this one. I can see a couple of scenes in my head but I honestly can't tell if it was from this one or another one of these Tarzan films. Happy Thursday. Hugs-Erika

      I'm a big Johnny Weissmuller fan. I think this was his 7th Tarzan film, and I don't like these RKO ones much.

    I didn't realize they made a movie with him fighting Nazis. Noble cause, but not my cup of tea.

      1943 war-time propaganda don't make for a good Tarzan movie imo :(

    I love the Tarzan movies. Tarzan's 3 Chances was the first movie I saw at a drive-in when I was 7. I liked the main feature, El Cid with Charlton Heston better

    A noble cause, but perhaps this film is not for me! Thanks for sharing, Valerie

    They used to play all the Johnny Weissmuller Tarzan movies when I was a kid on Saturday afternoon matinee. I watched a lot of them and think I have seen this one, too. Weird premise. Not one of the better ones--LOL! ;)

      That's how I first saw them, on Saturday afternoon tv :) This is definitely not one of the best.

    I loved the first Tarzan movies but this one has such a strange storyline! Take care! Hugs, Jo x

      The earlier Weissmuller Tarzan films were the better ones :)

    I like your description: war-time propaganda.

      Like the Rathbone Sherlock Holmes films. They took familiar characters and enlisted them for the cause.
