Tarzan Shame Of Jane 1995 【DIRECT 2024】

Have you ever seen Tarzan: Shame of Jane ? Or am I the only one who endured this fever dream? Let me know in the comments—preferably with a therapist’s note. Disclaimer: This film is for adult audiences only and is not affiliated with the Edgar Rice Burroughs estate or any major animation studio.

Before you rush to Google, let me save you the trouble: No, this is not a lost Disney sequel. It’s not a Filmation classic, nor is it related to the 1999 animated Tarzan . Instead, Shame of Jane occupies a strange, forgotten corner of the adult animated parody boom—specifically, the “erotic parody” boom that followed the success of Ralph Bakshi and the underground comix movement. tarzan shame of jane 1995

The plot is loose. Jane, an explorer from Victorian England, finds herself alone in the deep jungle. Tarzan (voiced by an actor who sounds suspiciously like a mid-tier impressionist) is less “Lord of the Apes” and more “himbo with a loincloth.” The “shame” in the title refers to the social embarrassment Jane feels as she slowly abandons her corsets and stiff-upper-lip propriety for jungle freedom.

But even by those standards, is a head-scratcher. Disclaimer: This film is for adult audiences only

Released in 1995 by a now-defunct studio (often misattributed to low-budget houses like Cal Vista or Video X Pix), Tarzan: Shame of Jane is exactly what the title implies: a tongue-in-cheek, adults-only retelling of Edgar Rice Burroughs’ classic.

Is Tarzan: Shame of Jane good? No. Not by any traditional metric.

For collectors of weird animation history, this is a must-see (once). For fans of actual Tarzan lore, it’s an affront. For everyone else? It’s a 70-minute time capsule of a moment when the jungle got very, very weird.
