Review of Kong Island


If you’re a fan of King Kong and horror movies you will absolutely love Kong Island-it mixes the best of both types of movies with some jungle adventure thrown in for good measure. Just the breathtaking scenery in this film makes it worth watching.

The jungle beat music score is really adds to the overall effect. In this film, a mercenary portrayed by Brad Harris is shot in the back. It turns out he was shot by a man who was once his friend (portrayed by Marc Lawrence) who then leaves him for dead. The friend runs into the jungle and begins performing brain operations on gorillas who are the size of men. After the surgeries the gorillas act as his robot like slaves. Brad Harris’ character survives the shooting and begins trying to track down his ex-friend to exact revenge. When the daughter of another friend is kidnapped by the gorilla robots while on safari, he has even more of a reason to venture into the deep dark recesses of the jungle in order to put an end to mad medical practices of his friend.

This film is full of secrets, revelations and plenty of double crossing. Burt, portrayed by Brad Harris, finds himself having to fight off attacks from the gorillas as well as a tribe of savages. In the meanwhile he has to also get on the good side of Eva the Wild Woman who, as he says, is the daughter of the forest and communes with the beasts living there. With the power she holds over the animals, she is the only person who can successfully help him. The scenery, music, plot and characterization are all top-notch in this kong/horror film that is sure to leave you guessing until the very end.
