This movie features a giant wild ape destroying a village, an elephant stampede, an earthquake, a man fights a tiger (for real), said man then has his leg bitten off (not real), and four guys fall of a cliff and die...in the first 20 minutes! Then main character Johnny is attacked by a giant ape and saved by a barely dressed blonde Tarzan woman.

The middle 45 minutes is a love story between Johnny and Lady Tarzan, including a frolicking jungle love montage with an assist from a leopard. Lady Tarzan gets bitten by a cobra on her inner thigh (of course) and Johnny sucks the poison out.

The final act is a total rip off of "King Kong" except that Lady Tarzan runs around Hong Kong in her animal skin bikini. I think she'd have been even more distracting than seeing the ape on top of a building.

This story is a mess and the editing is awful. But the rampaging ape scenes are awesome and the miniature effects are pretty intricate. People are stomped on, burned and crushed. I saw one man leap off a stairway in flames. So much for evacuating the city.

This is not a good movie, but it is an entertaining one.
