Meanwhile, Dr. Peter Elliott (Dylan Walsh), a primatologist, has invented a device that translates sign-language into audible English, and by doing so has given his pet gorilla, Amy, the ability to speak (she is voiced by Shayna Fox). Amy has been having nightmares, so Peter resolves to take her back to her birthplace in the Congo. At first he is unable to find funding, but then Romanian philanthropist Herkermer Homolka (Creator/TimCurry) grants it. It is revealed that Herkermer has an ulterior motive; to find the mythical lost city of Zinj, said to contain an ample diamond mine. Peter, Amy, Herkermer, and Peter's friend Richard (Grant Heslov) meet with Karen and head for Africa. Once there, they meet their guide, Captain Munro Kelly (Creator/ErnieHudson), and embark on the expedition.

* GentleGorilla: Amy is a friendly and docile gorilla who learned to communicate with humans using sign language and a glove that converts gestures to sounds. The movie also points out that most gorillas aren't particularly aggressive, and the [[KillerGorilla gorillas guarding Zinj]] are the exception from the norm...

* DemotedToExtra: The Kigani Tribe fighting against the Zaire military. In the novel, they are seen from afar by the protagonists a few times but they always manage to avoid them, only to be forced to fight them at the very end before escaping. Here, they are only mentioned twice but are never actually seen, no doubt because their...[[CannibalTribe dietary preferences]] would be far too graphic to depict in a PG-13 film.
