Tarzan and Jane have taken up residence in their gadget-laden treehouse, replete with animal-powered elevator. Two of Jane’s British relatives come calling, together with an underhanded hunter who plans to kidnap Tarzan and put him on display in London., Jane’s cousins try to kidnap tarzan to get their hands on her inheritance., Produced under the working title The Capture of Tarzan, Tarzan Escapes was completely refilmed before release, eviscerating several blood-curdling sequences involving killer pygmies, torture murders and vampire bats. Wearing considerably more clothing than in 1934’s Tarzan and His Mate, Tarzan (Johnny Weissmuller) and Jane (Maureen O’Sullivan) have taken up residence in their gadget-laden treehouse, replete with animal-powered elevator. Two of Jane’s British relatives (Benita Hume and Willam Henry) come calling, together with an underhanded hunter (Hugh Buckler) who plans to kidnap Tarzan and put him on display in London. The Lord of the Jungle is briefly subdued, but escapes just in time to rescue Jane and her family from hostile natives, who practice the jolly ritual of spread-eagling their victims between two bent trees, then splitting the unfortunates in two (a harrowing but tastefully filmed sequence, later excerpted in 1941’s Tarzan’s Secret Treasure). Other than this grisly finale, Tarzan Escapes was strictly family fare. The familial aspects of the film extended into the film’s credits; among the screenwriters were John Farrow, husband of leading lady Maureen O’Sullivan, and Cyril Hume, brother of supporting actress Benita Hume., Tarzan is taken prisoner by a hunter who wants to put him on exhibit. Johnny Weissmuller, Maureen O’Sullivan. Richard Thorpe directed., A little band of Americans enters the jungle. Jane’s friends have only her good fortune on their minds: she’s in line to inherit a million but doesn’t know it yet. But hunter Captain Fry smells a fast buck if he can bring Tarzan back in a cage.
