Shares the history of the great ape, his presence in popular culture, and how he inspired other films about apes. - Rosen Pub Group
The iconic image of King Kong climbing the Empire State Building has been a pop-culture staple since the original King Kong film premiered in 1933. Since then, there have been King Kong remakes, comic books, television series, and even a musical. King Kong also inspired other films, such as the Planet of the Apes franchise and big-ape documentaries. This resource will take readers behind the scenes of these thrilling movies with posters and stills from each era of the King Kong phenomenon, discussion of special effects, and more.
