The Mighty Gorga

The Mighty Gorga is a bargain-basement King Kong imitation, that still has some charm. Although the ‘monster’ costumes are laughable! The Mighty Gorga (1969) starring Anthony Eisley, Megan Timothy The Mighty Gorga is a cheesy King Kong imitation, where the monster costumes are incredibly bad! It’s clearly a very low budget film, where a circus…

King Kong (1976) starring Jeff Bridges, Charles Grodin, Jessica Lange King Kong 1976 the first remake of the original King Kong — and probably the worst of them. That’s not to say there isn’t anything positive to say about it. There is. The makeup by Rick Baker won an Oscar, and deservedly so. The sets,…

King Kong (1933) starring Fay Wray, Bruce Cabot, Robert Armstrong To be clear, this is the original King Kong movie, not the 1976 remake, or the more recent remake by Peter Jackson. Both remakes are enjoyable in their own right although I strongly prefer Jackson’s. This is the original, a movie that is still watched…

No, seriously. It’s enjoyable, cheesy fluff that doesn’t take itself very seriously, which is a good thing. The plot is convoluted, but here goes: Plot…

King Kong vs Godzilla, 1962 No one will mistake King Kong vs Godzilla for high art …. And that’s fine; it doesn’t pretend to be anything other than enjoyable silliness. It’s two men in rubber suits, fighting in choreographed style — shades of professional wrestling. The movie has a comically foolish executive decide to use…
