Description
An enormous gorilla exhibits endless compassion and courage. In his native jungle he cares for and protects an orphaned girl who later brings him to Los Angeles to save him from ruthless poachers. However, once there, the man-made confines and threats from a new set of cruel and greedy trophy-hunters cause the otherwise gentle, but misunderstood, beast to totally flip out. Remake of the black and white classic.
Plot Synopsis
Joe is a fifteen-foot-gorilla who has grown up with his lifelong best friend, Jill Young, in the remote mountains of Central Africa. Poachers make it necessary for Joe and Jill to relocate to California but an enemy from Joe's past appears on the scene who will do anything to recapture him...
