"Sequel to the 1976 remake of King Kong. Turns out the giant ape survived, here he is given an artificial heart and falls in love with the recently captured Lady Kong.

💡 Did You Know?
Linda Hamilton accepted her role in the film because she saw how the previous film had skyrocketed the career of Jessica Lange.

She was absolutely horrified when she saw the final product, which was universally blasted by reviewers and audiences alike.
