Synopsis

A nuclear powered tracking station is damaged by a great ape who begins to mutate and gain intelligence. Tarzan is travelling in the area with journalists Pete and Kate Wilson, and sees dying plants and discovers the radiation leak. While Tarzan is away, Pete and Kate encounter Goro who is learning to speak. Tarzan attempts to calm the group of apes, but Goro steals their car and drives to the police post at Umbaba. The apes steal food and guns, and take control of the camp. At night, Tarzan enters the camp with the only weapon he has—the bright flash of a camera. He uses it, but ultimately finds Goro dying of radiation poisoning. Pete and Kate get a scoop with the photographs of a talking ape with a machine gun.
