Diamonds lure evil men into the African jungles where a
beautiful jungle girl, Nyoka Meredith, (FRANCES GIFFORD)
protects natives and wildlife from treachery. Pilot Jack
Stanton (TOM NEAL) and sidekick Eddie Acuff lend a hand.
Unbeknownst to Nyoka, her father's criminal twin (TREVOR
BARDETTE) has killed him and taken his place. Great
vine-swinging action from ace serial director WILLIAM
WITNEY with JOHN ENGLISH, and also stars GERALD MOHR and
FRANK LACKTEEN. This is the "original" NYOKA of the silver
screen, NYOKA AND THE TIGERMEN, and the NYOKA comic book
from Fawcett came in the wake of this serial's success.
This 15-chapter original 1941 release is digitally
remastered in black & white, presented regions-free on two
DVD-R discs, in NTSC format, runs 267 minutes, and should
be playable on any standard DVD player. |
