CrawlerChunky In truth, there is barely enough story here to make a film.

Bergorks If you like to be scared, if you like to laugh, and if you like to learn a thing or two at the movies, this absolutely cannot be missed.

Nayan Gough A great movie, one of the best of this year. There was a bit of confusion at one point in the plot, but nothing serious.

Cristal The movie really just wants to entertain people.

OChrist As a tot in 1976, I remember seeing blurbs and photos from this in "Famous Monsters of Filmland" and "The Monster Times", and then hearing it had been suppressed by Dino DeLaurentiis. I grew up imagining a cheeky, raunchy, hip spoof and now, finally, over 32 years later, I feel compelled to report QUEEN KONG is the worst movie I've ever endured, and that includes MYRA BRECKINRIDGE (and JUNO). Smug, ghastly cheap (what the hell did they spend the 632K budget on, exactly?!), laugh-free, irritating to the point of nausea, its 84 minutes feel like hours. There's not enough material here to sustain a two-minute sketch in the worst KENTUCKY FRIED MOVIE knock-off you could ever imagine, and I would like to personally test anyone who finds this entertaining for developmental disabilities. It makes Dino's KONG look like the 1933 original and should be avoided at any price. I would rather sit through two semesters of trigonometry, go without sex for six months, and endure a jalapeno enema than have to view this again. It's really that bad.

Steamcarrot Hidden away for many years, Queen Kong is finally gained a DVD release, probably to the embarrassment of the stars, but also to the joy of fans of low budget seventies comedy. The film follows the 1933 King Kong remarkably closely and has fun poking fun at many films of the time. The film is clearly not to be taken seriously and has it's tongue firmly embedded in it's cheeky cheek and is by no means difficult to sit through. The women's lib overtones are quite laughable though as there are plenty of scantily clad (no nudity though) females exploiting the gender and prancing around for the men of the audience to have a right good ogle. A lot of the jokes may be of the 'groan' variety but in my book there's no such thing as a bad pun. One particular scene that gave me a hearty chortle was where a priest on a plane decks an annoying lady passenger because of her annoying laughter, and the singing nun on the plane raised a smile too. Of course film snobs will poo-poo it as film snobs are want to do and that's fine. It's not a film made for them, but for those who like ever-so-slightly risqué knockabout farces will get a lot from it. And from a strictly male point of view, any film that has Valerie Leon in a skimpy bikini for the entire length of it has to add a little something. It also looks better than it should do really, even if the white cliffs of Dover are now to be found on the African coast.

ultramatt2000-1 Yes this film exists. It is a parody of the 1933 version. When Dino Delaurentis saw that movie he sued him because he thought it was a parody of his multi million dollar remake, but it was a spoof of the 30's version. The gender tables are switched. There are plenty of gags. It is gagful. It had some British humor. The film offended blacks and gays for some reason, and that's why it wasn't released! I like that film, if this film was released at the same time as Dino Delaurentis' remake, everybody would go for that film. There are dinosaurs in this film, a T-Rex with jaws that sound like a squeaking door and a pterodactyl with a hook for a leg. The Big Ben gets climbed on, but unlike all the other Kong films, there is no blood and gore. She doesn't get shot down, she climbs down the Big Ben after Ray Fay tells the oppressed women of London to get freedom. Women's liberation was big back then! Other references apart from AIRPORT (1970), JAWS (1975), and THE EXORCIST (1973), was Andy Capp; a British comic strip. Other films Frank Agrama made was DAWN OF THE MUMMY (1980), and he was the producer for THE LOST WORLD (1992). Rated PG-13 for language, comic violence, nudity, sexual innuendo and thematic elements.

BritTVFilmfan The film stars Robin Askwith as Ray Fay, Rula Lenska's character (a film director) is called Luce Habit. There's a few other recognizable actors in the film, well I recognized them - Carol Drinkwater (The first Mrs.Herriot from the BBC TV series All Creatures Great & Small)), Robin worked with the second Mrs.Herriot Linda Bellingham in "Driving Instructor" so I guess Robin and Christopher Timothy have something in common (though I doubt Robin had an affair with Drinkwater), the other recognizable actors are Valerie Leon of Carry On fame, and Linda Hayden in a cameo role playing a Singing Nun.Here's the plot - Luce is filming in the jungle, her lead actor can't handle the riggers of the job and storms out of the camp, which is appropriate because he plays a "Camp" character. So Luce goes to London searching for a new male lead, "he has to be gentle yet strong and manly", guess who she picks. Luce drugs Ray and takes him to the jungle Island Lazanga "where they do the Conga" to finish her film. While filming of course they discover a village of maidens led by Valerie Leon as the Bikini clad High Priestess, of course they decide Ray a perfect sacrifice for Queen Kong, so they capture him and leave him on a giant table inside a cake for Queen Kong to eat. Of course Queen Kong doesn't eat Ray, but she does fall in love with him. The rest of the story is pretty much like the original King Kong, they take Queen Kong to England and all hell breaks loose.The opening credits song for Queen Kong has to be heard to be believed, here's the lyrics - Queen Kong, Queen Kong Queen Kong is the chick with all the hair Queen Kong comes from I don't know where Kong Kong Kong Kong Kong Kong Queen Queen Queen Queen Queen, Queen Kong She's a Queenie who aint weenie She's a Queenie Queenie Queenie for my weenie When I'm feeling mighty spunky I want to do it with my hunky monkey Queenie Queenie Queenie Queenie, Queen Kong Kong Kong Kong Kong, Queen KongQueen Kong is riddled with bad jokes, but Robin & Rula deliver them without batting an eyelid, here's one of the early ones in the film that made me cringe, Robin's begging for a joint from some hippies - "Hey man have you got a joint, come on just let me have one please, I won't bother you again" the Hippie says "know man you're always after a joint, you say just one, but you keep coming back for more, beat it man, I said beat it man" Robin says " I tried beating it, but the Pope said it was wrong". Here's one of Rula's, Robin says " look at that great wall, what lies behind that great wall" Rula's reply "the Chinese have always lied behind the great wall"The special effects for Queen Kong (if you can call them special) are terrible, they quite fit the film though, I have a feeling they're extra lo w budget on purpose.OK, I liked the film, it kinda had the same feel as a Leslie Nielson "Naked Gun" film, and there's a link, the Queen impersonator in the first Naked Gun movie also appears in Queen Kong. Queen Kong definitely deserves to be taken from the vault and released properly, I would love to one day own a special edition widescreen version on DVD, with a commentary by Robin and Rula, but that'll probably never happen. But hey! Tim Burtons doing a remake of Planet Of The Apes, maybe with all the monkey hype that's going to be hitting us next year, someone might figure let's cash in, just a fantasy I know.
