The old favourites, 'who mado such a hit in Tarzan of the Apes," the previous sensationally atccessful feature, are Frank Merrill, Natalie Kingston and Al Ferguson.
Merrill and Miss Kingston again furnish the romantic interest, and Ferguson is an engagingly trencher. ous villain. Merrill again appears as Tarann, the master of the Jungle, and Miss Kingston plays the part of Jane, Lady Greystoke.
"Tarzan the Tiger" is oven more vivid and exciting than "Tarzan of the Apes" Tarzan the Tiger" is based on Edgar Rice Burroughs' famous novel. Tarzan and the Jewels of Opar."
