Mike Henry plays the best Tarzan in this Bond-esque take on the ape man
The ape man travels to Mexico and tussles with an international criminal (David Opatoshu), who enjoys ridding his enemies in explosive ways. He kidnaps a boy whom he thinks will lead him to a lost city of gold. Don Megowan is on hand as the intimidating Mr. Train.
"Tarzan and the Valley of Gold" (1966) has a lot of good elements. For starters, former NFL-player Mike Henry is arguably the best actor to play Tarzan ever, at least as far as looking/acting like Burroughs' character goes. Here Tarzan doesn't speak in monosyllables, like the Weissmuller films or early Gordon Scott ones. He's articulate, intelligent and noble.
