Episode description
"And lo, the beast looked upon the face of beauty..."
This week, Cody and Matt traverse the rough seas on a voyage to the mythic Skull Island to meet one of the biggest stars of the silver screen. They talk ground breaking special effects, record breaking box office turnout, and the heart breaking history of stop-motion genius Willis O'Brien. They also discuss ravenous reptiles, silly spectators, and seminal cinema simians.
There's no denying that Kong is King when it comes to game changing genre pictures.
