Lex Barker's fourth Tarzan film starts with him rescuing an orphan white boy named Joey (Tommy Carlton) being used by the natives as bait. Tarzan becomes mentor to the boy and takes him back to the treehouse to meet Jane (Dorothy Hart). Later the trio is visited by an imposter claiming to be Tarzan's cousin who wants the ape-man to lead him into uncharted jungle in search of diamonds, but the territory is home to the hostile Wazuri tribe. Neither Dorothy Hart or Tommy Carlton would appear in another Tarzan film.
Tommy Carlton passed in 2009 at the age of 67.
