Sheena, also known as Sheena: Queen of the Jungle, is a 1984 Columbia Pictures film in Metrocolor based on a comic-book character that first appeared in the late 1930s, Sheena, Queen of the Jungle.
A hybrid of action-adventure and soap opera–style drama, Sheena was shot on location in Kenya. It tells the tale of a female version of Tarzan who was raised in the fictional African country of Tigora by the equally fictional Zambouli tribe.
The movie starred Tanya Roberts, Ted Wass (later to star in the television series Blossom) and Trevor Thomas. It was directed by John Guillermin and written by Lorenzo Semple, Jr., who had previously collaborated on the infamous 1976 remake of King Kong.
Sheena bombed in theaters and was nominated for five Golden Raspberry Awards including Worst Picture, Worst Actress (Tanya Roberts), Worst Director, Worst Screenplay and Worst Musical Score, but it reportedly did find some cult success on home video and DVD.
While investigating rumors of a mystical "healing earth" whose powers are said to flow forth from the sacred Gudjara Mountain, geologists Philip and Betsy Ames (Michael Shannon and Nancy Paul) are killed in a cave-in, leaving their young daughter Janet an orphan.

Die Königin des Dschungels!
Sheena, oh Sheena
Just came in from Monterey
Every night and day
I've been going crazy
Sheena, oh Sheena
Steel guitar and saxophone
Who would like to know
Who she's taking home?
I'm playing the piano
'Til my fingers' like bananas
But I want to go
But I have to keep up playing
Through the day and through the wall
And the through back door home
Sheena, Sheena, oh Sheena
Burgundy and Beaujolais
And when Sheena stay
She throws her pants away
I'm playing the piano
'Til my fingers' like bananas
And it hurts me so
But I have to keep up playing
Through the day and through the wall
And the through back way home
Sheena, oh Sheena
Going back to Monterey
By this time today
I should be far away
No more playing the piano
And my fingers' like bananas
I got up to go
But I have to keep up playing
Through the day and through the wall
And just to end my door
Sheena, oh Sheena
