Rating:  - beware the ape woman!
More than once I've had fun watching Captive Wild Woman, Jungle Woman, and Jungle Captive. The beautiful Acquanetta plays Paula Dupree the ape woman in the first two films of the series.

Evelyn Ankers is, as usual, terrific and looks great in her fur hat and fur coat during the climax when the mad doctor, John Carradine, wants Cheela to kill Ankers and her sister. Carradine is unusually ... Read More
Rating:  - Mediocre horror film with too many stock shots
Unlike Maltin I find this film no fun. It's too mechanical and riddled with cliches. It's as though some studio executive told a script writer to frame some cock and bull story around shots of Clyde Beatty doing his animal training acts in an old movie made in the thirties
