Tarzan and the Great River (1967)


Warner Bros.
Directed by Robert Day
My rating: 2 stars out of 4
IMDb
(DVD, Warner Archive Collection)

Exceptionally juvenile entry has Mike Henry's Tarzan traveling upriver with a lion, a chimp, an old sea captain and an orphan kid standing in for Boy. They pick up a nice lady doctor along the way. Together they battle the evil Barcuma, head of a violent tribe who is wreaking havoc on the friendly tribes and turning them into slaves. There is far too much stock footage of wildlife, even for a Tarzan programmer.
