About Tarzan and the Great River
Tarzan is summoned to Brazil by an old friend to stop an evil tribal cult from destroying native villages and enslaving the survivors. The Lord of the Jungle is accompanied on his quest by a pretty blonde doctor, a boy and a grizzled sea captain.
Directed by Robert Day, Tarzan and the Great River leans on a strong ensemble — Mike Henry, Jan Murray, Manuel Padilla Jr. — to carry a story that balances spectacle with character.
The film landed with audiences for its craft and performances, and remains one of the most talked-about adventure titles of 1967.
