đź“ś Plot Summary
🦍 Deep in the Guatemalan jungle, Tarzan (played by Herman Brix, a.k.a. Bruce Bennett) swings into action in this gripping tale of treachery and ancient secrets. When a group of adventurers sets out to find the Green Goddess, an ancient idol said to possess both vast riches and a hidden formula for explosives, they quickly discover they are not the only ones searching.
The idol was once safely in the hands of a native tribe, but when it was taken to London, the tribal elders demanded its return—warning that its removal could curse the land. A dangerous expedition is formed to retrieve the idol and return it to its rightful home. But within the party is Raglan, a duplicitous villain who wants the idol's secrets for his own evil purposes.
Tarzan, a protector of the jungle and an enemy of exploitation, gets involved when he discovers the group's motives aren’t as noble as they claim. With vine-swinging chases, deadly traps, and a mystical green idol at the heart of the story, Tarzan must navigate loyalty, betrayal, and ancient powers to stop a catastrophe.
This film blends mystery, colonial intrigue, and vintage action in a thrilling ride across the treacherous wilds of Central America.
