Synopsis:


Charlton Heston stars as Taylor, an astronaut who crash-lands on a mysterious world where intelligent apes rule - and hunt primitive, speechless humans for sport. Soon, Taylor's life depends on the kindness of the chimpanzee scientists Cornelius and Zira (Roddy McDowall and Kim Hunter) and his escape to the Forbidden Zone, where he uncovers an earth-shattering secret that may hold the key to his own destiny.

Based on the Pierre Boulle novel, featuring a screenplay by Rod Serling (The Twilight Zone), and Winner of an Honorary Academy Award for Outstanding Make-up Achievement, PLANET OF THE APES is grand entertainment from its visually arresting beginning to the chilling last moment.
