A follow-up to Joshua Oppenheimer's brilliant documentary THE ACT OF KILLING, which details the atrocious murders of millions of innocent people in Indonesia in the mid '60s.
This film personalizes the tragic events through the lens of one man's connection to these heinous crimes - his older brother, who was murdered by these filthy animals.

Bela Lugosi is a Mad Scientist who is testing on himself... and as things go... has turned himself into a half-ape/half-human.
You know... as you do.
Bela's half-ape-man-dude is really more close to a half-wolf-bro than a gorilla-guy. But - hey…

This film is why I'm always a bit freaked out when I'm having "tubby time" and have to dip my head (or ears) beneath the water. I go into a desperate state of fear that I will come back up transformed into an extra from the "Planet of the Apes" films.

Kicking off HOOPTOBER with a little KING KONG KAIJU action!
Instead of a traditional "review"... here are some notes I took:
* This is a Rankin/Bass Production!!! WHAT?!? Yep. The people who brought you Rudolph, Frosty, Santa Claus and Burl Ives as a folk-singing Snowman... bring you: KING KONG ESCAPES!!
