Timewarp trailer: Planet Of The Apes (1968)

by James Rundle

You damned dirty apes!

The original, and still by far the best. Planet Of The Apes was a seminal film in science fiction, one that has continued to influence and touch upon pop culture, and the genre as a whole since its release. Possibly Charlton Heston at his finest.

Directed by Franklin J Schaffner, the film starred Charlton Heston, Roddy McDowall and Kim Hunter among others. The story follows an astronaut who craslands on a planet, only to find humans a subservient and enslaved race to super-intelligent apes.

      They don’t make long trailers like this anymore! Great film and much better than the remake! What do you think Rise Of The Apes will be like?

      What would be the most iconic scene in this movie? I’m thinking the Statue of Liberty. Anything else?
