English Summary:

King Kong is a 1976 American monster adventure film produced by Dino De Laurentiis and directed by John Guillermin. It is a remake of the 1933 film of the same name about a giant ape that is captured and taken to New York City for exhibition. Featuring special effects by Carlo Rambaldi, it stars Jeff Bridges, Charles Grodin and Jessica Lange in her first film role.

Fred Wilson, an executive of the Petrox Oil Company, forms an expedition based on infrared imagery which reveals a previously undiscovered Indian Ocean island hidden by a permanent cloud bank. Wilson believes that the island holds vast untapped deposits of oil, a potential fortune which he is determined to secure for Petrox. Unknown to Wilson or the crew, Jack Prescott, a primate paleontologist who wants to see the island for himself, has stowed away on the expedition's vessel, the Petrox Explorer. Prescott reveals himself when he warns the crew that the cloud bank may be caused by some unknown, and potentially dangerous, phenomenon. Wilson orders Prescott locked up, believing him to be a spy from a rival oil company.

While being escorted to lock-up, Prescott spots a life raft which, upon inspection, is found to be carrying a young woman who is unconscious. After conducting a thorough background check on the 'spy', Wilson realizes that he is telling the truth and appoints Prescott as the expedition's official photographer, requesting that, due to his medical training, he be present when the woman revives. When she does regain consciousness, she says her name is Dwan, and states that she is an aspiring actress who was aboard a director's yacht, which suddenly and inexplicably exploded.

Hungarian Summary:

Jack Prescott paleontológus fellopózik egy olajat kutató kereskedelmi hajóra, amely egy ismeretlen sziget felé tart. A földdarabon azonban nem csupán olajat találnak. A sziget primitív lakóit egy óriási majom, King Kong tartja rettegésben, akinek nőket áldoznak fel. Ezért a bennszülöttek a kutatókkal tartó gyönyörű Dwant foglyul ejtik, hogy feláldozzák az istenként tisztelt szörnynek. Prescott kiszabadítva Dwant foglyul ejti King Kongot és mindannyian visszatérnek New Yorkba. Az óriási majmot cirkuszi látványosságként akarják mutogatni Amerika-szerte, de az - óriási pánikot keltve - megszökik fogvatartói elől, hogy megtalálja Dwant.
