Review – King Kong (1976)

“When the big monkey die, everybody cry.” Thanks, Dino. This film is terrible on so many different levels, from a multitude of continuity slips right on up to the dreadful script, dreadful acting and dreadful direction. And if you could write a book about the sexual themes in Lady and the Tramp, you could write a whole encyclopedia about the sick sexual overtones here. If this movie is worth seeing at all, it’s merely as a historical artifact, or perhaps an integral part of any Jessica Lange film festival (hey, it keeps her humble). Wish I’d skipped it
