He also suffered a series of strokes shortly after Tarzoon came out. Probably just a coincidence, though.
How the hell did they get so many celebrities aboard a really raunchy cartoon porn film?
Well, the simple answer is that most of the cast simply wasn’t famous at the time. Also, in the ‘70s, adult animated films were all the rage, thanks to movies like Fritz the Cat. But while Fritz actually had a message about the culture and the political zeitgeist of its times, Tarzoon seems to exist mostly to offend … which makes perfect sense given that it’s essentially an early SNL production. You’re gonna have to pretend we’re an elderly relative you were forced to visit in a nursing home by your mom for this revelation but … SNL actually used to be pretty edgy and risqué (also funny and, hey, DON’T YOU ROLL YOUR EYES AT US! IT WAS!) Maybe not on the same level as Tarzoon, but, at its core, not really that far from it.
Does it make Tarzoon good? No. Have you already started watching it instead of finishing this article? Yup. Meaning we can safely get this off our chests: Gadget from Rescue Rangers can still get it.
