Among the studio's action movies, one standout production was a 1927 Tarzan picture. Author Edgar Rice Burroughs declared, "If you want to see the personification of Tarzan of the Apes as I visualize him, see the film "Tarzan and the Golden Lion" with Mr. James Pierce." The "Film Daily" reviewer wrote that the movie "has a rather new order of thrills and atmosphere that might prove distinctly attractive." The two-reeler "West of Hot Dog" (1924), according to historian Simon Louvish, contains "one of Stan 's finest gags," involving a level of cinematic technique that bears comparison to Buster Keaton's classic "Sherlock Jr."
