    Where to Watch

A lad (Jon Hall) raised by a holy man (Richard Carlyle) opposes the Arab chieftain (Ted Adams) who murdered his father. Kathleen Burke. Mohammed Bey: Lal Chad Mehra. Juvenile Edgar Rice Burroughs story.

Reviewed By: Hans J. Wollstein

As cheap and shoddy as they come, The Lion Man is notably only for an early appearance by future Universal star Jon Hall, still billed under his real name of Charles Locher. The sets are ramshackle, the acting non-existent, and the running time of 70 minutes a study in inertia.
