This movie was released in theaters while blockbusters like HERCULES, HERCULES UNCHAINED and many other similar titles were filling the theaters Tarzan wasn't one of the movies people wanted to see anymore. The story itself is a good one with Tarzan leading a rag-tag group through the jungle to escape a ruthless gang hot on their heels. Jock Mahoney, who later played Tarzan was the lead Heavy of the gang. The trailer for this movie (available to see on Y/T), declares, "Courage of Hercules, strength of Samson". In an effort to compete with the other movies competing in the theaters. Watch it as an OK timewaster.
