Jungle Manhunt

Anne Lawrence (Sheila Ryan) is an America freelance photographer who has been hired by a wealthy American to find his nephew Bob Miller (Robert Waterfield), a former All-American football player and a World War Two pilot, who was lost while piloting a bomber on a routine mission over Africa. She meets Jungle Jim (Johnny Weissmuller) who agrees to help her in the search. Complications arise quickly in the form of a savage, hostile native tribe attacking and burning other villages, led by Dr. Mitchell Heller (Lyle Talbot), a white scientist who is capturing natives from other tribes to work for him as slave labor in a synthetic diamond scheme. Jim finds Bob living happily with a friendly native tribe whom he has started to educate in civilized living. He joins Jim, Anne and the natives in a hunt for Heller.
