Let’s Get The Banned Back Together – 7 NIGHT OF THE BLOODY APES 1969

“Entertaining, sometimes brilliantly funny…” Chortle.co.uk

When gorillas meet grapples in gruesome groovy get-up… Yes! Thank HAYSTACKS the DPP were there to remove this 1969 Mexican wrestling/monster movie mash-up from the eyes of innocents. And bless BIG DADDY I’m here to take you through it!

Movie legend Rene Cardona directs a cast of hammy have-a-go heroes and dastardly doctors in this bloodthirsty tale where masked Lucha Libre toss opponents from the ring…while a half man half ape abomination tears Mexico City folk to bloody shreds.

WHO is the wrestler in the red mask, and does Batman’s copyright lawyer have her details?

WHAT is the deformed creature that stalks the indoor sets, unconvincingly sprinkled with grass cuttings?

HAS the make-up department honestly never seen a monkey before? I mean, EVER?

Join Richard Asplin for a horrific adventure with a bloody ape – aka Spurious George – and discover a world of wrestling, resuscitation and a riotously rubbery rampage.
