I might have to go hunt this down, just to watch the Gulliver-themed primate surgery scene. That and...was Kong getting a blowie? That was...interesting...
Giant monkey heart surgery followed by giant monkey foreplay.
Maybe he should have stayed dead...

Yep, called it last week and no doubt next week will be Orca, being the more "direct approach". Although I'm interested in what is coming up in the third week. Just what else did this man produce? I'm not sure if The White Buffalo is really infamous enough. We shall see.
The giant heart surgery is pretty much the only thing I remember about King Kong Lives since as Bob has shown is quite a strange but striking visual... and of course just plain stupid.
Fun side note is that both of these Kong films were directed by John Guillermin, also director of The Towering Inferno and Death on the Nile.

It just occurred to me that theres an interesting connection between these movies and Crank 1 and 2. Namely that in the first one of both movies the main character falls to what should have been there death and the in the sequels both come back with artificial hearts and get busy. Is crank some crazy re-imagined remake?
More likely Orca. I had recently watched White Buffalo and it's not much of a Jaws rip-off. It's more like a rip-off of Jaws: the Revenge in that the titular killer whatsit is hardly in the movie and it's mostly focused on the human (yawn) drama.Almack said:
Let me guess, this guy was the one who made the 3rd or 4th Jaws movie. The one that took place in the aquarium and wasn't any good.
At 2:30 I was like, 'Damn! Imagine the pizza that thing could cut!'
What I don't get is, the heart was being transported in the crane; was it a blood transfusion or a heart transplant? How Did Miss Kong survive having her heart removed? Why would scientists endanger a healthy creature to save a wounded one if as far as they know those are the only two members of their species?
Movies are strange.
