King Kong Escapes is a joint effort from Japan's Toho studios (creators of Godzilla) and Rankin-Bass (of Rudolph The Red-Noses Reindeer and Frosty The Snowman fame). In fact, the movie is based on the Rankin-Bass King Kong cartoon series from 1966.
The movie is total eye candy that could have only come out of the colorful 1960's. King Kong fits nicely into the Toho universe, and it also features Robot Kong, one of the most clever giant monster creations to emerge from the Toho stables at the time. Not to be missed!
