★★★★ · Fun African adventure · MorbiusX33 · 2025-03-23
Losely based on the real hunter named Trader Horn, Rod Taylor plays the rugged World War 1-era hero with southern California filming locations looking nearly identical to their British East Africa counterparts. May not be Taylor's best film, but it's fun viewing for a rainy day movie with the kids.
