Tarzan, The Ape Man (1981) Review

By Christopher Null

Terrible

Rightfully roasted as one of the worst films of all time, the 1981 reimagination of Tarzan the Ape Man proves that you can take Bo Derek to water, but you can't make her not get naked and play around in it.I scarcely know where to start dissecting this debacle.
