Is this a forgotten gem in the King Kong oeuvre, or a bafflingly soulless, perfunctory attempt to re-frame the classic Kong narrative for the youth of the 90’s? Either way, it makes for a festive discussion!

The ApeCastApe Day Bonus #22 - Primal (with Erin Clarke) Duped! That’s how Jack and Geoff felt after watching Primal, the 2019 Nicolas Cage movie that does NOT—despite what the Japanese poster would have you believe—feature a rampaging gorilla. There’s nary an ape in sight in this low-budget manhunt/animal panic/ocean suspense thriller, but it does have Cage (plus a familiar favorite for Lost-heads). And Erin Clarke is back for this bonus episode, to help us figure out whether the movie can overcome the sheer audacity of its poster’s grievous gorilla-tease.2020-11-301h 39Jack's Silly Little Friendly Neighborhood Star Trek Discovery, Short Treks & Podcast064 - Die Trying (DIS3x05) (with Geoff Clarke)The ApeCast tackles Disco Season 3!

He and Jack also relish any chance to talk Final Fantasy VIII, the Temporal Cold War, the Smoke (and Smog) Monster, Robert Picardo, Admiral Vance (Vance Admiralty), and, as we bid farewell to Nahn, BARZANS, BARZANS, BARZANS.
