Jungle Man-Eaters
- June 1954 (1954-06)
Jungle Man-Eaters is a 1954 American adventure film directed by Lee Sholem starring Johnny Weissmuller, Karin Booth and Richard Stapley. It was the last official Jungle Jim movie after Screen Gems bought the rights to make a TV series based on the character (which also starred Weissmuller). With only three movies on his contract remaining, Weissmuller used them wisely by just playing himself, but the format stayed the same.[1][2] Despite the title, there are no Jungle Man-Eaters shown in the film.
Plot
Jungle Jim is recruited to track down a group of French diamond smugglers who seek to alter the price of diamonds through taking over a secret diamond field. The smugglers not only murder the original owners of the diamond field but set up inter-tribal warfare to prevent any intruders from learning of the diamond field.
