As a fan of ALL the King Kong movies, I just wanted to pay homage to a movie I have enjoyed through the years since childhood. I would love to do a proper documentary on this one day... The movie is currently available on Paramount DVD in the USA and region-free internationally on Bluray by Studio Canal. Hoping a collector's edition will turn up one day. This is a fan made trailer with reviews from the time. I understand the movie has its detractors but it deserves some appreciation too. So, please just have fun with it. Hope you enjoy.
There's also a great private fan page on Facebook headed by Jim Avey. Be sure to search for it and join the group...
