Tagline: The Legendary Kong is Back!

Plot: Sequel to 1976's "King Kong". In the finale of that film, Kong fell from the top of the Twin Towers onto the concrete below.

Meanwhile, an adventurer in Borneo finds and brings to the U.S. a female Kong, since her blood will aid in the heart operation. Naturally the two apes meet, begin a romance -- and escape from captivity, creating chaos and destruction everywhere they go. But unfortunately for the simian sweethearts, the U.S. Army is hot on their trail...

external link"King Kong Lives" is a rare treat, in that it is so bad it is great. The '76 remake was bad and offensive, bastardizing one of the greatest monsters in film history. This one leaves the sacred alone and delves so far into serious 1980s-giant-monster-movie camp that it's a shame the actors don't seem to get it. 1/5
