#268: Tarzan, the Ape Man (1981)

Ep. 268

Well, we're reviewing another Tarzan movie. What could go wrong? ...a lot apparently, this is one of the worst movies we have ever reviewed. 1981's 'Tarzan, the Ape Man' is an awful adaptation of the Tarzan story, featuring some of the most uncomfortable scenes we've ever had to watch the podcast, as well as some of the worst behind-the-scenes stories we've ever uncovered while recording this podcast. We haven't done one this bad in a while!

    For our final episode of the year, we're turning the holiday vibes up to 11 and heading to Zach's home country for Kiwi Christmas! In this movie, Santa is over the commercialisation of Christmas, so much so that he runs away to New Zealand and crashes a family's summer camping holiday. Does this movie contain the classic New Zealand comedy we both love? Have we finally found a relatable Christmas movie set during summer? Does this one have any weird Santa lore that we spend way too long dissecting?Join our Patreon for our bonus episodes! https://www.patreon.com/oldiebutagoodiepodFollow the show!Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/oldiebutagoodiepod/Facebook: https://fb.me/oldiebutagoodiepodPodcast Platforms: https://linktr.ee/oldiebutagoodiepodGot feedback?
