Overview
Tarzan the Magnificent is a 1960 British Eastmancolor film directed by Robert Day, serving as the follow-up to Tarzan's Greatest Adventure and the twenty-third film in the Tarzan film series that began with 1932's Tarzan the Ape Man. The film stars Gordon Scott as the iconic jungle hero, alongside Jock Mahoney. In the story, the Banton family robs a store in a small village and kills the local police constable. Tarzan captures one of the family members, Coy Banton, and decides to return him to the authorities so that the dead policeman's family will benefit from a five thousand dollar reward. The head of the clan, Abel Banton, and his two sons have no intention of letting Tarzan deliver Coy, and they burn the river boat that was to be used for travel. Several passengers are left stranded, forcing Tarzan to take them along on a trek through the jungle. Meanwhile, Abel Banton trails them with the intent of getting his son back and getting rid of Tarzan.
