Queen Kong (1976)

Yup, this film exists. This was a British film that fell in the hands of obscurity 1976 due to the battle over the KING KONG rights of the original between Universal and Dino Dellaurentis, but never came out to DVD until 2003. Now here it is, the theatrical trailer. You can get this film at amazon.com. I uploaded the film's trailer on RetroJunk recently.

Enjoy

.....OR,as it is more commonly known,"Carry On Kong".

Think about it---if it weren't for George Lucas,cheapass giant ape movies would've been THE hot movie genre of the late '70's!

@ctdsnark CARRY ON KONG is to QUEEN KONG (1976) as CARRY ON CAVEMAN is to CAVEMAN (1981).

Heeey! I saw that in Johnny Bravo...

[MattBL]

@Elyphaleth It was in an episode called "Ape is Enough".

[kosteskab]

I bet this one was a smash at the box office . . . LOL!

[MattBL]

@kosteskab Actually, it had a brief run in European theaters. It came to America on DVD in 2003.

[ScyberPsylock]

The hippies back then were completely fucked up!

This is SO BAD that it cant be shown on Elvira's Movie Macabre. Even she has her standards! Sheesh, the cardboard sets,the dumb music,the dooy acting and that ape??? With boobies and a boogie butt? Its like John Waters and SNL made a scifi spoof!!!

[VRmission38]

Lucas, Spielberg, Donner and others were visionaries who really saved Hollywood and motion pictures in general from THEMSELVES. 

[cedric199870]

omg, such a parody of king kong, she climbs on a tower and gets hunted by choppers and boeings

[richwicz]

Utter shit! But it did have some great Brit actors, Robin "Horror Hospital" Askwith, Valerie "Blood from the Mummy's Tomb" Leon and Linda "Blood on Satan's Claw" Hayden.
