Quotes
-
[a "gorilla" has strangled Game Warden Bentley in his bed]
Jungle Jim : Oh, Jim... Uncle Frank - he's dead!
Prof. Brandt : The gorilla - did you catch him?
Jungle Jim : No, but I will.
Prof. Brandt : How did he get away?
Jungle Jim : He turned that leopard loose on me. It was pretty smart... for a gorilla.
-
Prof. Brandt : How long do you think it will take?
Kramer : A couple of days, maybe. We should have brought along some dynamite. Didn't that friend of yours tell you the gold was sealed up in there.
Prof. Brandt : No. He wasn't exactly my friend.
Kramer : He wasn't? How come he tipped you off to the Treasure of the Shalakari?
Prof. Brandt : He valued his life more than gold. I happened to know he was wanted as a war criminal.
-
Kramer : You're a pretty smart guy, Brandt.
Prof. Brandt : Yeah? I wish I could say the same to you.
Kramer : What do you mean by that crack?
Prof. Brandt : Turning that leopard loose on Jungle Jim wasn't exactly smart! A gorilla wouldn't do a thing like that.

[Jim, Nyobi and Barbara are securely bound hand and foot in Brandt's cave]
Prof. Brandt : It's no use, Jungle Jim. It will take you hours to get loose that way and I don't think you're gonna have that much time.
Nyobi : If you're going to kill us, do it now and get it over with.
Prof. Brandt : Really, Nyobi, aren't you being a little melodramatic?
Barbara Bentley : Aren't you with your strutting and gloating?
Prof. Brandt : All right, Jim, it's your turn. What have you got to say?
Jungle Jim : There's just one thing... Brandt, I'm going to kill you.
-
Prof. Brandt : This looks like quite an expedition. You mind if I go along?
Jungle Jim : No, I think it would be a good idea. There's only one thing, Brandt...
Prof. Brandt : Well, what's that?
Jungle Jim : If we do catch a gorilla man, try not to shoot him.

[Brandt's men capture Jungle Jim attempting to rescue Nyobi]
Kramer : It's Jungle Jim!
Prof. Brandt : You were right, Kramer. He *is* hard to kill.
Kramer : Not now he ain't!

[Jungle Jim's manhunt stumbles upon a tiger mauling a lion in a fight to the death]
Prof. Brandt : I thought the lion was the King of the Jungle.
Jungle Jim : That's storybook stuff. The tiger's by far the best fighter.
Prof. Brandt : I didn't know that.
Jungle Jim : You should. You're a zoologist, aren't you?
