The Tiger Woman (coming soon)

Greedy oil speculators, led by Morgan, are trying to force Tiger Woman and her band of warriors from their jungle home. Allen Saunders of Inter-Ocean Oil wants to develop the oil, too, but fights with Tiger Woman to stop the bad guys.

The Tiger Woman (1944) is a 12-chapter Republic film serial starring Allan Lane and Linda Stirling (her serial debut). The serial was re-released in 1951 under the title Perils of the Darkest Jungle and, in 1966, it was edited into the 100-minute Century-66 film Jungle Gold.

Linda Stirling is a jungle girl lost in the South American rainforest and ruling a native tribe. The serial’s plot is a variant on the common serial and B-Western “land grab” plot – in this case, the villains attempt to run the natives off the land so that they can claim its valuable oil reserves.
