We'll use my rock !
This is a great behind the scenes shot of the legendary Haruo " Godzilla " Nakajima as King Kong,  in the classic "King Kong Escapes  "
This was a promotional photo shoot, as this scene never appears in the movie.

Awwww.....Poor little Kid !

Hiya gang,
Gorilla Men have a long standing tradition of scaring the crap out of little kids, whether we try to, or not...
Here Gorilla Man extraordinaire Don McLeod does exactly that, while on tour promoting American Tourister luggage.
Don's amazing suit was created by none other than multiple Oscar winner Rick Baker.
It's no wonder kids, and most of the people who saw Don's commercials though he was the real thing !

Happy National Gorilla Suit Day ! Janaury 31st 2015



It's that time of year again gang !
As we all know, Mad Magazine legend Don Martin created National Gorilla Suit Day originally as a skit in Mad....Never realizing it would catch on as a real, honest ta gosh holiday !
Now anyone who owns, or can borrow, or rent a gorilla suit can participate !
 Or if you can't get a gorilla suit, you can coat yourself in glue and roll on the floor of a barbershop and celebrate too !
 The thing is to go out into the world, and do something...anything...in a gorilla suit !
Go to a party, hang at a bar, go shopping, yard work, whatever gorilla suits your fancy !
Just be SAFE in what you do ! no driving or anything dangerous wearing a suit ...play safe, and have fun !
That's what Don Martin had in mind when he came up with it, and fun is the name of the game !

Here are some shots of  Movie Monster making Monkey Man Chris Walas and myself celebrating last year....So take photos of yourselves doing your gorilla thing !
You can send your photos to  Hollywoodgorillamen@gmail.com and see them right here !

Now....GO APE !!!!!

ZOOT !!!
