Tiger Fangs (1943)

Better off in a zoo or a circus than the fate that awaits them.

[5/10 · 5 January 2016]

Easy to figure out, this jungle adventure is fun fluff with Mr. Bring Em' Back Alive himself, Frank Buck, preventing a nefarious villain from utilizing jungle cats to kill enemies of his unsurprising cause. Z grade fluff has plenty of great stock footage although I don't think that it would please animal rights activists. Yet, at under an hour, this poverty row bottom of the barrel double bill is perfect popcorn fare. Pretty June Duprez is an engaging heroine, especially when she is confronted by a snarling, drooling panther. A slew of chirping monkeys of all sorts will amuse the kiddies while a herd of elephants make a welcome late entry to help wrap up the plot.
