Best Film to feature a monkey or an ape !

[Termite Man]

Dunston Checks In was released in 1996

Yes and the 80's are before the 90's so I was still around then and if I had missed the 80's then I'd have been 6 at the most when Dunston Checks In was released which is way to young to form an opinion on such a great film !

One of George A. Romero's lesser known horror films is the underrated Monkey Shines about a monkey who is trained to assist paraplegics and who becomes a bit too possesive of its new owner.

Its also where family guy get the evil monkey from IIRC

Just goes to show DO NOT shoot your monkey full of human brain's

 

[Johnny Canuck3]

If that was re-made now, they'd have to change the title.

That's true. Now a show with that title would be about a really hairy guy receiving oral pleasure in a back alley behind a dance club.

 

[Monkeygrinder's Organ]

Braindead by far from that list. I've put it on my list for rentals because of this thread.

 

[Roadkill]

Braindead.

But Every Which way But Loose is good too.

*geek* Homo Sapiens are most likely descended from chimpanzees, not apes or gorillas...

Cannonball Run 2 since 2001 isn't on the list. Did anyone ever see the Wogan interview with the dude who was head simian in 2001? He started jumping around all over the place, picking at hair etc. And I once had a monkey acting lesson with him...and now use that skill to scare the crap out of people at parties...

Death of a President?

*geek* Homo Sapiens are most likely descended from chimpanzees, not apes or gorillas...

*bigger geek*

rather than being descended from any of them chimpanzees simply share the nearest common ancestor

what you said sounds a bit like

I'm mostly lightly descended from my sister not my cousin

 

[boha]

killer baboons

ok, it's a shite film, but the tagline is a belter

 

[Orang Utan]

There's that stag film I did when I was young and needed the money

'Alastair Campabells Monkey Assasination Squad'

Name inspired by someone talking about whether Kelly's death was suicide or moidah who was saying that the usual suspect agencies wouldn't have touched it and I thought 'Wow, I wonder if Alastair Campbell has a monkey assasination squad?'

Oz or 2001, original Kong is cool as well

So 2001 didn't use rteal monkeys or apes either , brilliant thats not included as well . And by that process King Kong films and Braindead shoul;dn't be allowed either so Everywhich way but loose is currently the clear favorite

[Orang Utan]

Damn, too late. I guess I should watch this if only out of duty

[Bernie Gunther]

Old thread bump is old.....

I found my freedom on Blueberry Hill just came on the wireless and it immediately made me think of 12 Monkeys.

Excellent film

An ape is not a monkey

 

[Pseudopsycho]

but a monkey is an ape

Bye Bye Monkey

If you’ve been waiting to see a movie where Gerard Depardieu gets raped by a feminist theater troupe, communicates with a police whistle, adopts a monkey, and destroys Imperial Rome, you can stop waiting. CIAO MASCHIO is pretty spectacular

 

[discokermit]

that looks great.

planet of the apes is a superb film.

Starring a toy monkey - or is it?

Heres a complilation of some of the best bits of Merlin's Shop of Mystical Wonder
