Goliathon (1977)
7/10
Of course it is silly
6 January 2022
I think that I thought like to watch tonight but then looking at the poster wondered if it really be as good at all. Of course it is silly but was director, Meng-Hua Ho and had watched a few before. Black Magic (1979), The Oily Maniac (1976) and Black Magic 2 (1976) were okay and actually they are fine. This is a rather pleasant if not exciting but the first bit is particularly enjoyed in the first rather colourful scenes with animals. The King Kong lookalike is also okay and his friend the Swiss lady Evelyne Kraft rather lovely, should have really made more greater films. The oddly named Peking Man is dragged from the Himalayan and then to Hong Kong reprising, King Kong (1976) with Jeff Bridges and Jessica Lange, but is rather a long half hour or so of the city being a bit of a problem with the gorilla, not from Peking, tramples down the streets and cars and skyscrapers. Of course finally he reaches out for a few helicopters and then bombed down by the army.
