About this product

Product Information

Complex sociological themes run through this science-fiction classic, about three astronauts marooned on a futuristic planet where apes rule and humans are slaves. The stunned trio discovers that these highly intellectual simians can both walk upright and talk. They have even established a class system and a political structure. The astronauts suddenly find themselves part of a devalued species, trapped and imprisoned by the apes. But one, Taylor, manages to break out and, aided by a pair of compassionate chimps, makes his escape to an uninhabited section of land. However, during the trek Taylor makes a startling, unsettling discovery about the planet--and realizes he's come full circle. PLANET OF THE APES is based on the novel by Pierre Boulle with a screenplay co-written by Rod Serling.

  • The first "Planet of the Apes" in the movie franchise starring Charlton Heston.

    I saw this film when it was originally released in the movie theater. Not knowing anything about the story, I was completely drawn into the world of the primate planet and shocked by the ending. The actors are completely committed to their characters in bringing this futuristic tale to life. This was before CGI (computer generated imagery.) Great storytelling! Screenwriter is Rod Serling of Twilight Zone fame.

  • Planet of the Apes - 60 years ago!

    Even though this film was produced 60 years ago, it was well presented on DVD. It was a treat to see it again. Always loved this movie.
