Loved, loved... LOVED this movie when I was a kid. Really, "you can't go home again".

I have no idea how this movie has flown under the radar so long. With the popularity of the new King Kong movie, I checked out several other older Kong movies. I found this movie to be one of the very best "monster" movies I have EVER seen. The special effects are second to none, and the acting is superior. Every bit as good as the original Kong flick, without the hype. Great for all ages, and HIGHLY recommended!!
