A fantastic special effects movie made in 1949 (1950 release), 23 January 2002
10/10
Author: johnjay100 from Williamsburg, Virginia

I was 10 when I watched most of this movie being made in El Monte California. The "jungle" this was filmed in was where we played, and was also the wintering headquarters of the Clyde Beatty Circus. The special effects were nothing compared to the computer generated effects of today, but in 1949 they were spectacular. From the Giant, the Lion Pit, the Cave, fighting the Pterodactyl, to the slingshot fight across the "river" took imagination and talent to create. The night scenes were done in broad daylight with smoke lenses so we could watch everything that summer. If you watch this with a child's eye, it is a fantastic movie. If you watch it with an old fogey attitude, it will be a waste of time.
