FantasyActionAdventure

After falling from the Twin Towers, Kong lies in a coma for ten years. When his heart begins to fail, scientists engineer an artificial heart, and a giant female ape is captured to serve as a source for a blood transfusion. When Kong awakens following his heart transplant, he senses the nearby presence of the female ape and the two escape to wreak havoc together.

VIBE

A wild, over-the-top 80s spectacle. This film delivers giant ape action with a surprisingly earnest, if campy, heart. Expect big thrills, questionable science, and plenty of primate mayhem.
