“The Most Amazing Show On Any Screen ! Adventure to make you wonder if it’s TRUE . . . while your very eyes convince you that it IS!”~King Kong (1933)

IMDB Summary: A petroleum exploration expedition comes to an isolated island and encounters a colossal giant gorilla. (I like the redundancy.)

Rotten Tomatoes: 98%

Why I love it: It was the first scary movie I ever saw.

When I was super young I was lucky enough to have a father who loved classic horror movies. As lucky as having the same parents who let me Ding Dongs and drink Coke. Slasher flix and sugar—my two favorite things. I was probably four years old when we watched King Kong together. The 1933 King Kong. Best love story ever told.
