Disguised - snigger - as a simplistic 60s monster movie with people in ape masks. PLANET OF THE APES is a multi-layered masterpiece of themes and

We're 300 light years from your precious planet (meaning Earth) - he really shows contempt for Earth
th shot in the cornfield when the apes first appear - that ram's horn - so disuturbing and bizarre - tis till send shivers down my legs and tears to my eyes in horror. What a moment!
