Movie Review: The Ape (1940)
Here it is: possibly the most ridiculously plotted film in history. It involves a deranged small town doctor, an escaped circus gorilla, and…polio. There’s really no describing it adequately, especially since the editor seems to have been drunk, so it’s quite difficult to follow what’s going on at key points. Boris Karloff is in fine form, as usual, and the monkey suit is particularly hilarious. Great and gloriously cheesy stuff.
