SnoReptilePlenty Memorable, crazy movie

Claysaba Excellent, Without a doubt!!

Pacionsbo Absolutely Fantastic

Baseshment I like movies that are aware of what they are selling... without [any] greater aspirations than to make people laugh and that's it.

Scott LeBrun Girls, gore, and a gorilla mix in this deliciously demented schlock flick from two legends of Mexican exploitation: Rene Cardona and Rene Cardona Jr., who co-wrote the script as a remake of Cardona Srs' "Doctor of Doom". Cardona directs the nasty nonsense with flair, giving us a scenario in which lady wrestlers, real life open heart surgery footage, in your face gruesomeness, and the requisite T & A all combine.Jose Elias Moreno gives his all to the role of doctor & mad scientist Dr. Krallman. Krallmans' son Julio (Agustin Martinez Solares) is very sick with leukemia and the foolish doc will do ANYTHING to save the life of his son. In the tradition of Dr. Frankenstein characters everywhere, Krallman hits upon what he thinks is a genius idea. Give his son a gorilla heart! Yes, you read that correctly. Unfortunately, the surgery regularly turns Julio into a raving beast (Gerardo Zepeda), who goes about molesting women and murdering both males and females with amusing regularity.Krallman hits upon an even *more* genius idea in the later parts of the film, but I'll leave you to discover that on your own."Night of the Bloody Apes" truly lives up to that time honoured phrase of being "so bad it's good". It adds to its engagingly ridiculous premise with a fair amount of energy and a decent forward pace. The makeup is passable and does serve its purpose. The film is so damn exploitative that it's likely to keep schlock addicts smiling.The acting is perfectly serviceable for this sort of thing, with Armando Silvestre as our dashing, intrepid detective on the case, Carlos Lopez Moctezuma as the scarred, loyal assistant to our antagonist, and Norma Lazareno as the luchador dating the hero.Even in light of how silly the movie is, it does manage to be absurdly touching in its final moments.Seven out of 10.

gavin6942 This cheap Mexican horror film is a remake of Rene Cardona's "Doctor of Doom" (1962), spiced with nudity, medical footage, women wrestling, and cheap gore shots.Where the title comes from is anyone's guess. There is plenty of blood and gore (and nudity), and at least one ape, but there is nothing in the film that could be summed up by this title. But, who can complain when what you get is every bit as wild as that name? This is worth watching, and probably one of the better films on the notorious "video nasty" list (besides, you know, all the Fulci and Argento). For sheer entertainment value, this is top notch.

MovieGuy01 I enjoyed watching Night Of The Blody Apes,I found it to be quite a funny sort of horror film. This was a cheap Mexican horror film. Female masked wrestler Lucy beats an opponent a wrestling lady with a red costume like Catwoman. she hurls her opponent from the ring. A mad scientist (Dr. Krellman) attempts to cure his son's leukaemia by doing the first 'ape-to-human' heart transplant. He decides to put a gorilla's heart into the lad There is footage of a graphic open heart surgery inserted in the ape operation scenes. this causes the boy to turn into a big ape. He becomes deformed and mutated, as he grows facial hair and immediately goes on a bloody rampage, tearing clothes off women and faces off men. I found this to be quite a funny horror to watch at time

bensonmum2 Night of the Bloody Apes is a bizarre little film. It features: bad acting, a ridiculous storyline, terrible special effects, inane dialogue, Grand Canyon size plot holes, a complete lack of logic, enough padding for two movies, an insane amount of blood and gore, a generous helping of nudity, some truly "unique" camera-work, and female luchadors. I generally hate this term, but it should be easy to see why I consider Night of the Bloody Apes "so bad its good". The movie is so full of excesses and poor taste that it's an absolute blast to watch. Night of the Bloody Apes may be a train wreck of a film, but I can't think of many movies that are this bad yet so fun to watch.I could go on and on describing moments for Night of the Bloody Apes like the utterly boring masked female wrestling matches or the eye gouging scene that looked like someone was squeezing cottage cheese, but I don't want to "ruin" it for anyone. You need to see this one for yourself.
