BOLLYWOOD GOES APE

GORILLA (1953) Indian

Way, way back when I first began this journey into the mysterious cinematic regions of the Gorilla Men, I recall coming across a mention of an East Indian picture called GORILLA that one would naturally assume, had a gorilla suited lead. Unfortunately, I was unable to uncover much about it and apart from coming across a few muddy pics of lobby cards on Ebay, I haven't given it much thought in quite some time. My usual auction crawl revealed the lovely poster above - and the angry fellow tossing about the native has given me a renewed desire to find this early Bollywood offering. The possibilities of a large scale musical dance number featuring a shaggy simian boggles the mind!
The poster above also features a nicely reworked swipe from THE BRIDE OF THE GORILLA, released two years earlier.

PULSATING CAGES OF HORROR

ORIGINALLY POSTED 5-8-2009

Oh, sure, it sounds promising, but instead of fiendish , we get fidgety furball.
I watched this Grade Z schlock slog some years ago and was immediately crestfallen over the brief gorilla bit and the fact that it was mostly out of focus.
At least the poster's cool...
