The Tarzan Collection Starring Gordon Scott (6 Discs)

Gordon Scott, the last great movie Tarzan, in one swinging set
This collection from Warner Home Video gathers all six of Gordon Scott's Tarzan adventures. In my opinion, Scott was the last of the great movie Tarzans. Scott portrayed Tarzan during five years of cinematic transition that evolved from the more familiar Tarzan fare of greedy, khaki-suited hunters (in 1955), to grittier Tarzan sagas featuring roaming bloodthirsty jungle terrorists (in 1960).

It is much less expensive to purchase this set than to buy the Gordon Scott Tarzan titles individually. These are DVD-R discs that do not have any "extras." However, the picture quality on each film in very sharp and the sound is excellent.

With these DVD-R discs, the viewer can simply hit the "play" button on the remote and watch each film all the way through. Also, the films are divided into "chapters" of ten minutes each. The menu page does not list the chapters by number or title, but the viewer can proceed through a film by hitting the "next" or "previous" buttons on...

Tarzan...Cowboy Heroes....Gordon Scott.....gone, gone, gone**
There was a boy....he grew up in Florida in the 1950's, he was a "nature boy". He loved playing outside, riding his bike all over the countryside, climbing trees, jumping and swinging from limb to limb and swimming in the nearby river, springs and lakes.....and hiking, fishing and camping.

Gordon Scott was this boy's hero. Scott's Tarzan was a force for Good. He loved the forest , the jungle and respected and loved the good people and animals that lived there. The bad people and bad creatures he avoided as much as possible. The evil "white man" with his guns and technology were the enemy of the jungle and the enemy of Tarzan. These movies were great fun back in the fifties and it's so good to finally see them again. Of course all of this was a myth but an honorable myth.

The greatest action hero of all time in the classic mythical battle of primitive man against the forces of evil and civilization.....we know who wins, unfortunately, but it was fun while it...

Great Tarzan collection
This is the third collection of Tarzan movies in my collection. Both the video and audio are excellent and would highly recommend it to any one who enjoys the adventures of Tarzan. But to me Johnny Weismueller was the only Tarzan. These videos have no extras, each episode is on its own disc and case.
