Description
 
Insanely jealous of his wife, wealthy zoologist Lionel Atwill uses his knowledge of animals to dispose of any would-be rivals.

Atwill brings his latest collection of wild animals to a major metropolitan zoo.

Here he continues his homicidal ways, dispatching his wife's lover (John Lodge) with the severed head of a poisonous snake.

When his wife (Kathleen Burke) gathers up enough evidence to go to the police, Atwill unceremoniously dumps her in the zoo's alligator pit.

A young animal specialist (Randolph Scott) and the zoo owner's daughter (Gail Patrick) suspect foul play and get the goods on the villain.

Attempting to escape, Atwill accidentally locks himself in the python cage, and.....

Despite the drunken comedy relief of Charlie Ruggles, Murders in the Zoo is a genuine spine-tingler, from its first scene--in which Atwill sews a man's lips shut and leaves him to be devoured by jungle wildlife--to the last.
