TAGLINES : "A Monster of Creation's Dawn Breaks Loose in Our World Today!" "The Most Amazing Show On Any Screen!

His footsteps thundering a reborn showmanship" "Most startling picture since the talkies!"- Grossed $90,000 its opening weekend, the biggest opening ever at the time. A film crew goes to a tropical island for a location shoot, where they capture a colossal ape who takes a shine to their blonde starlet, and bring him back to New York City. Carl Denham needs to finish his movie and has the perfect location: Skull Island. But he still needs to find a leading lady. This 'soon-to-be-unfortunate' soul is Ann Darrow. No one knows what they will encounter on this island and why it is so mysterious, but once they reach it, they will soon find out. Living on this hidden island is a giant gorilla and this beast now has Ann in its grasps. Carl and Ann's new love, Jack Driscoll, must travel through the jungle looking for Kong and Ann, while avoiding all sorts of creatures and beasts. King Kong's roar was a lion's roar and a tiger's roar combined, slowed down, and run backward. Willis H. O'Brien's stop-motion effects animation was legendary in its day, and it retains its magic today; while technology has progressed considerably since King Kong was first released, O'Brien was able to give his great ape a personality, and Kong's moments of fear, curiosity, pain, and occasional goofiness gave him a sympathetic, ultimately tragic dimension that adds immeasurably to this classic film's effectiveness. CAST includes Fay Wray, Robert Armstrong, Bruce Cabot, Sam Hardy, Frank Reicher, Noble Johnson, James Flavin, Steve Clemente, Roscoe Ates, Ruby Dandridge, Merian C Cooper.
