JFS136: King Kong Lives (1986)

 

Junk Food Supper is back, and so is King Kong! Schlocktober may be over, but we're still trying to keep things semi-scary as we tackle the big ape head-on with our review of King Kong Lives, the weird 1986 sequel to the 1976 classic, this time with more giant-ape open-heart surgery! Featuring big ol' gorilla boobies too! Oh, and Linda Hamilton's as well!

So #DonloydNow and enjoy this bite-sized Junk Food Supper. We got all this plus continued (brief) references to the legendary Blade Rave, taking your Bowman to a scary videogame, Bowman's Big Bundle Bonanza, is George Lucas the new Ted Danson (in blackface?), a mini-Mandalorian review (featuring Grogu and friends), a hard-fought Street Fighter discussion, an affinity for neckwear, some distinctly fuzzy ambient background interference akin to a lightly carbonated beverage in the distance, Sean mixes up Primal Rage and Killer Instinct, 1976: the M. Bison-tenial, what exactly does "not too long ago" even mean exactly, Clerks: the Animated Series referenced, Vic Morrow's kicked nards, a literal mid-episode jump-scare (you've been warned), Garth's into cool shit, an unexpected return of the legendary Clayton Miller, an unrealistic expectation for 1970's style perversions in the 1980s and so much more!!

Recorded live-to-tape from rat-infested waters!~!
