Additional InformationThis collection features the five PLANET OF THE APES movies, beginning with the 1968 original (starring Charlton Heston, Roddy McDowall, and Kim Hunter), in which a group of astronauts find themselves stranded on a world where apes evolved from humans, only to learn the shocking surprise about humanity's future.<BR>BENEATH THE PLANET OF THE APES, the second installment in the PLANET OF THE APES series, finds another astronaut (James Franciscus) following in his predecessor's time-wandering footsteps to the planet ruled by highly evolved apes. There he encounters a group of nuclear holocaust survivors living in Grand Central Station and worshipping the very atomic warhead that destroyed their world.<BR>ESCAPE FROM PLANET OF THE APES, the third chapter in the series, finds ape heroes Cornelius (McDowall) and Zira (Hunter) in 1970s Los Angeles. They have traveled back in time, but soon find that they have enemies in the past as well as the present.<BR>In CONQUEST OF THE PLANET OF THE APES, an intelligent ape (McDowall, playing the son of his other APES character, Cornelius) from the far future leads an army of simian servants in a revolt against their human masters. This fourth film features the most explosive subtext of any in the series, along with a sleek, futuristic production design.<BR>The fifth and final episode, BATTLE FOR THE PLANET OF THE APES, features a community of intelligent apes living in harmony with a group of humans after the collapse of human civilization. However, a band of mutants who reside beneath a destroyed city try to conquer those they perceive as enemies.

  • Watch the Bonus video specially for the interviews and exclusive scenes.

    An original and very life like. Simply brilliant and very entertaining. The bonus video in which Roddy MacDowell narrates the whole video of how the whole concept was born and executed by the Producer under intense pressure and the exclusive interview of Charlton Heston was worth more then the whole movie itself. Absolutely superb. Highly recommended

  • Great for any fan of the Planet Of The Apes Original Movies

    If you like good old fashioned films with a plot then these movies are for you. No CGI or movie tricks. Charlton Heston is great in the first 2 and Roddy McDowell is in all 5 films.
