REVIEW
Classic sci-fi adventure with Heston as a modern-day astronaut hurled centuries into the future to a planet where apes rule and man is hunted for sport. McDowall, Hunter and Evans, all under some incredible makeup effects, appear as adversarial and not-so-adversarial simians. (Four sequels not available separately on DVD or VHS) (Sequel: Beneath the Planet of the Apes) (Remade in 2001)
