Who was the doctor that created Mechani-Kong?

[mediaassault]

@telewatcher89 Doctor Who. No relation to the British Doctor Who series.

[MrDestroyer893]

[mediaassault]

@MrDestroyer893 Thank you!

[67mrblack]

[mediaassault]

@67mrblack Yeah, thanks for the comment. I've since gotten a much better mic.

I loved this kong when I was a little kid watching this movie on the saturday night creature feature movie.

[Chuloloc]

Awesome. Much love for the old school movies.

[DYLANMOVIES2]

gorosaurus is my favorite godzilla and king kong character and im glad he like never dies!

[WickedGypzy]

On 0:48- 0:50 Kong looks like my dad when he wakes up at 4 in morning and turns on the Light!

[SuperTestfreak]

i love this cheap ass movie

[jethrowomber]

@telewatcher89 LOL and he still fell for it

oh by the way who's on first..

[Romeosierra616]

Dr. Who's death was actually pretty graphic if I remember lol

[SpaceOdyssey56]

Not that constructing a robot Kong makes a coughed-up ape furball's worth of sense, but Mechani-Kong does make the film.

[1tripz]

King Kong Escapes came about because the rip off artist of UPA were infringing on copy written ideas Universal owned (giant octopus, power from thunderstorms), with racist results. So heavy Republican studio Universal were policing there ORIGINAL HEAVYWEIGHT KING KONG.....

[genext7]

is there gargantua stock footage in the US release version? If so, at what point? thanks

[Velocity9s]

Yes, and Linda Miller is CUTE! Come to think of it...so's Mia Hama(alias Madam X!)

[TOHOFIEND54]

cheesy but not a bad movie

[TheBByamashiro]

i never seen a movie like this before:D

[telewatcher89]

@Firelogger The Doctor that created Mechani-Kong!

[Firelogger]

@telewatcher89 And you got your answer- Dr. WHO

[telewatcher89]

@Firelogger I was asking who was the doctor that created Mechani-Kong.

[Firelogger]

@telewatcher89 Who. That's who.

[Velocity9s]

I've been reliving my childhood since the age of six...:)

[suvie5]

aww this remind me of my childhood.....big fan even still today...

[princeton707]

omg i didnt even know this exsited and i love them both and i ''THOUGHT'' i watched all of there movies ever made. DANG IT!!!

[kurumais]

i LOVED this move as a kid

[jjobie]

@Themaniacnextdoor Yeah. Gorosaurus' agent invoked an old clause in Kong's contract specifying that he had to have at least one on-screen fight with a bipedal carnivorous dinosaur per film. Hollywood is so full of politics.

[jjobie]

@mediaassault Yes. Who was the doctor.

[prodprod]

I saw this on the big screen when this first came out -- over forty years ago, and I was completely won over by its admittedly goofy thrills.
