Prepare the gorilla., 3 October 2008
6/10
Author: lastliberal from Florida

This was one of the infamous video nasties banned in Britain and released with approximately 1 minute of pre-cuts in 1999.

The quality of the DVD was excellent and really made the film enjoyable. Even the dubbing was good.

A doctor (José Elías Moreno) whose son had an incurable disease tries to save him by transplanting a gorilla heart. Of course, the son (Agustín Martínez Solares) turns into gorilla man. If he didn't have an ugly gorilla face, he could easily be in the top five for Cosmo's bachelor hunt.

He searches out victims and manages to rip some flesh from one man's neck, pop out the eyeball of another and decapitate a third in his quest that left six or eight dead.

I have absolutely no idea why the Luchadoras are in this movie. It switches from the doctor's operations to wrestling. The wrestling has nothing to do with the story, but it was fun to watch.

Eight boobies, three boobies, and, of course, one dead gorilla.
