BOLLYWOOD KING KONG REMAKE

Some of our favorite flavors are coming together to form great new tastes just in time for Christmas. The snarky Sepia Mutiny is unearthing rumors and scraps of information regarding a 1962 Bollywood remake of KING KONG called SHIKARI.

The poster (and t-shirt) you see here is from great flavor number 2 - Omar Khan's Bubonic Films website. Omar is an ice cream shop owner in Lahore who is one of the only people in the world preserving Pakistani movie memorabilia and he has a much better, review-heavy site here that is well worth your time. He even owns prints of several of the Lollywood films on his site and was instrumental in the Mondo Macabro release of ZINDA LASH, Pakistan's musical version of DRACULA.

Back to KONG or, rather, SHIKARI - the Sepia Mutiny folks are piecing together info on it and so far the movie seems to involve wrestlers, a fight in the forest, and a powerful ape. Read their comment board for what they've got so far. It's like CSI: BOLLYWOOD!
