“That wasn’t Cortez; it was Pizarro. And he dies busted, Fred.”

On this episode of Bots, Bugs, and Babes, my father (Al Jaconetti) and I go back to the 70’s to check out the  King Kong (1976). We look back at Dino De Laurentiis’ big budget remake, that was supposed to be revolutionary. We will cover all the aspects about this film, including the special effects and what went wrong. So grab your chloroform, gas up the flamethrowers, and race up to the roof. Just remember, apes can’t swim.
