328 - PLANET OF THE APES (1968) + BENEATH THE PLANET OF THE APES (1970)
Added 2024-05-11 14:11:37 +0000 UTCHosts Josh and Jamie discuss the origins of one of the most enduring science-fiction concepts and depressing pop studio franchises of all time with a double feature of the original adventure pulp thriller meets sci-fi horror PLANET OF THE APES (1968) about Charlton Heston crash-landing on a topsy-turvy Darwinian nightmare planet where humans are the ones treated like inferior savage animals to be hunted, caged and ruled over by an entire political, scientific and militarized society of hyper-intelligent Apes + its bizarre and rushed sequel BENEATH THE PLANET OF THE APES (1970) which is one of the weirdest franchise sequels ever written and somehow has an even bleaker, more hopeless ending than the original film.
See you all in a week's time where we'll be back with a special guest continuing APE MODE and talking ESCAPE FROM THE PLANET OF THE APES (1971) and CONQUEST OF THE PLANET OF THE APES (1972). Keep it sleazy!
