A LOVE STRANGER THAN KlNG KONG!
From writer/director John Landis, the mind behind The BIues Brothers and An American Werewolf in London, comes a Iove story that transcends the boundaries of nature and good taste the one and onIy Schlock!
Carnage! Terror! Banana skins! The mighty prehistoric ape SchIocktropus has emerged from hiding to embark on a fuII-scale rampage across a quiet Southern Californian suburb. The poIice are baffled. The army is powerIess. The body count is rising. But when Schlocktropus encounters a kindly blind woman (Eliza Garrett, National Lampoon s Animal House) who sees beyond his grotesque visage, the homicidaI simian is presented with a chance at redemption...
Shot over tweIve days on a micro-budget, SchIock Iaunched the careers of both Landis and legendary effects makeup artist Rick Baker (Videodrome). An uproarious pastiche of monster movies, packed to the gills with irreverent humour and biting satire, SchIock serves as the outrageous missing link between the creature features of yesteryear and its creators subsequent varied and celebrated careers.
