Viewing Notes

Not good! Italian Canadian production that apes (pun intended) King Kong ‘76 with a fraction of the budget. It’s astonishing how many beats are taken from that movie. I recognized the young woman portraying “Jane” from a Fulci movie and sure enough she’s Emily from City of the Living Dead.
