Congo

Strangely, watching the Jane Goodall doc reminded me of this corny 90s action film I liked as a kid. Total nonsense but I enjoyed the nostalgia, Tim Curry’s terrible fake European accent and the sign language speaking ape Amy (a person in a monkey suit lol)

Not enough Bruce Campbell

Haven’t seen this since I was a kid. There’s charm in its seriousness despite absurd elements. Killer apes, laser diamonds, talking gorillas, it commits fully. That sincerity, combined with old-school adventure spirit, makes it a cult favorite.

Only thing I really liked was how the lava in the film is handled. Here's a hint, it's super hot, you know like in real life.
