This Movie Is About.
Wiki.
Jungle Woman is a 1944 American horror film directed by Reginald LeBorg. The film stars Evelyn Ankers, J. Carrol Naish, Samuel S. Hinds, Lois Collier, Milburn Stone, and Douglass Dumbrille. The film involves Dr. Carl Fletcher who is in court on the murder of Paula Dupree, who he explains has the ability to turn into an Ape Woman.
Jungle Woman was the second film in Universal's Cheela, the Ape Woman series, preceded by Captive Wild Woman. It was shot in a short period, with LeBorg claiming seven days while production documents claim were 10 days. It would be the last film for actress Acquanetta in the role of the Ape Woman as she would leave Universal before the next film in the series, The Jungle Captive. Contemporary reviews of the film commented on the acting and overall quality of the plot, while retrospective reviews from the book Universal Horrors and AllMovie have called it among the worst of the Universal horror films.
