Review :
The final "Bomba" film is also one of the best...
Good clean fun. Johnny Sheffield retired his loincloth and vine rope with this twelfth and final entry in the "Bomba" series, started in 1949 by writer-producer-director Ford Beebe and Monogram Pictures (by now transformed into Allied Artists). It was appropriately timed, of course, as Sheffield no longer looks like a Jungle Boy, apt to running away from the girls after a chaste kiss. Here, Bomba attempts to stop elephant hunters sent by the government to kill a wild herd, convinced that one rogue pachyderm is responsible for leading the others astray. Beebe's method of inter-cutting stock wildlife footage with the African-set adventures usually results in a visual hodgepodge; with "Lord", however, the editing is pretty sharp, particularly during the exciting climax. Bomba and a stubborn young woman from London became fast friends (complete with a romantic moonlight smooch), though he ends up aiding her in a reconciliation with her bleeding-heart fiancé and walks away with his standard friendly wave. Amusingly, no female was ever able to topple this lord of the jungle! **1/2 from ****
