Thanks for the heads up on this k-man-3  .
I agree and don't doubt it either   .

I just checked out Wikipedia's profile page for this film
and it's U.S. running time says 96 minutes = 1 hour 36 minutes   .

---- https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/King_Kong_Escapes ----

So most likely we will actually get to watch about 1 hour 15 minutes
( or perhaps less ) worth of this film  .
I noticed it has worked out that way almost every time on most
of these movies Sven has shown with the exception of the much shorter films of course  .

Not complaining here it's at least a newer movie to me anyway
( it's all in good fun with whatever Sven shows )  .

PS - Hope you had a great Christmas and New Years as well !  

Thanks for the notice, ms-zanadu. 

I haven't seen this one before, but it looks like one of those Japanese monster movies that's so bad that it takes a lot of hot-buttered  and some  to get through it. Oh well, I'm sure Sven will have some entertaining songs and jokes. 

You're most welcome jamesbwill hope you had a great Christmas and New Years as well  .
I mostly binged watched Twilight Zone on SyFy for New Years weekend  .

I actually haven't seen or heard of this Japanese film before but like most of them for me are fun as well as funny to view   .
It's like a comedic action horror flick all wrapped into one with these films such a riot   .

Definitely yes popcorn , other snacks , and other variety beverages are in order

it just wouldn't be movie night with out it    .

Including special themed selections too  !

The trivia section of the movie says that, even though Linda Miller was an American actress who spoke fluent English, of course, her voice was dubbed by Julie Bennett.

Julie Bennett did a lot of voice dubbing and cartoon voices. Dragnet fans will remember her several appearances on that show in both the 1950s version, and the color 1960s version.

Quite interesting trivia jamesbwill thanks so much for sharing this with us here   .

According to Wikipedia there was two Linda Millers also  :

Looks like the Linda Miller in this movie is Linda Miller (VI) on IMDb. This one was an American model living in Japan when she was cast in King Kong Escapes. This was her first credit and she only had one more.

There is a different actress named Linda Miller who was the daughter of Jackie Gleason.

reply

It appears " Linda Miller " was quite a household name for actresses back in the day  .

Thanks again jamesbwill for the trivia too  .

Mie Hama the beautiful Japanese actress who started out bad and ended up good was a James Bond girl "Kissy Suzuki" the same year 1967 in You Only Live Twice ---

She also appeared in 1962 KING KONG v GODZILLA which Svengoolie will show in April ---
