The film stars the hard-working Rocco Siffredi as the Ape Man, and although he doesn't have much charisma he looks the part. Jane is on an expedition in Africa when she meets up with Tarzan and falls in love with him she brings him back to Britain, where culture shock sets in. And sex is the only thing it has going for it really.
In any case, this is your usual cheap porn movie, a retelling of the classic Tarzan with added sex. I guess mainstream cinema had run dry for the director by that stage (with a few exceptions such as FRANKENSTEIN 2000) and he instead found profit in grot. TARZAN-X: SHAME OF JANE is one of the many porno movies churned out by Italian exploitation king director Joe D'Amato during the 1990s.
