Johnny Sheffield plays basically a teen Tarzan in a series of Bomba movies, complete with swinging vines and monosyllabic vocabulary. In this second entry, he is pursuing a rogue panther who killed his favorite pet monkey. I'm not sure Tarzan would have reacted the same way. He tracks the cat to a river island being cleared by some white men for their plantation. Bomba gets involved in a juvenile love triangle between the daughter of the plantation owner and a mysterious servant who may or may not actually be the human form of the panther. Ridiculous.
