Tarzan and the Valley of Gold

When authorities ask Tarzan what he’ll need to pursue a crime kingpin and his commandos through the wilds of Mexico, the Ape-Man requests only a good knife, a sturdy rope and some soft leather to fashion into a loincloth. “Casual but practical,” he explains to the astonished officials.

It’s a new day for fans and for the jungle lord when ex-NFL linebacker Mike Henry grabs the vine for the first of his three portrayals of a Tarzan who has one foot in the power-suited, briefcase-toting urban world and another in the untamed wilds.

This new action hero will need all his skills—from relying on animal instincts to commandeering a tank—in this adventure that ends with an explosive showdown in an uncharted city filled with gold.
