See the “Eighth Wonder of the World” in all his black and white glory and learn how the film was painstakingly filmed using stop motion animation and camera techniques that were utilized in Hollywood for the next 50 years. A giant ape, dinosaurs, the Empire State Building, the Third Avenue “L” and a screaming Far Wray make this an action classic that has never been topped. This amazing film contains one of the most iconic closing scenes (and lines) in film history! You’ll shed a tear for this monster! It is still amazing to this day. This is the first Long Island presentation to give you the backstory of this amazing film.
