King Kong Escapes 1967 Blu-Ray English Sub-Titled:

King Kong Escapes (King Kong's Counterattack) is a 1967 tokusatsu kaiju film directed by Ishiro Honda and written by Kaoru Mabuchi, with special effects by Eiji Tsuburaya. Produced by Toho in partnership with Rankin/Bass, it is a loose adaptation of episodes of Rankin/Bass and Toei Animation's animated TV series The King Kong Show. The film stars Akira Takarada, Mie Hama, Rhodes Reason, Linda Miller, and Hideyo Amamoto. Toho released it to Japanese theaters on July 22, 1967, and Universal to American theaters on June 19, 1968.

During a research expedition in their submarine the Explorer, a United Nations crew led by Commander Carl Nelson encounters the legendary giant ape King Kong living on the remote Mondo Island. Meanwhile, the evil scientist Dr. Who has completed his own robot duplicate of Kong: Mechani-Kong. Who intends to use the electronic robot to mine the deadly Element X for his benefactor Madame Piranha, but when Mechani-Kong fails to do so, he decides to kidnap the real Kong to do the job himself. It is up to Nelson, Lt. Commander Jiro Nomura, and Lieutenant Susan Watson to foil Who's plan and help Kong escape, which leads to a final confrontation in Tokyo between Kong and his robot doppelganger. King Kong Escapes was the last King Kong film produced for nearly a decade, with the next being Dino De Laurentiis's King Kong remake in 1976.
