Cover story: „King Kong“ (1933)
written by Markus Haage
„King Kong“ (1933) is considered to be groundbreaking for the genre of fantastic cinema and the art of effects. Even almost a century later, it remains relevant – not only from a historical perspective, but also in terms of content. With „Godzilla vs. Kong“ (2021), Warner Bros. recently brought another spin-off of the giant ape's story to cinemas. In its biggest retrospective, „Neon Zombie®“ looks back on ninety years of film history and the shaping of the film character King Kong.

In issue 27 of „Neon Zombie®“, discover not only the gripping story of King Kong, but also the rebirth of Jason Voorhees in „Friday the 13th Part VI: Jason Lives“ (1986), the unusual cult success of the commercially failed video game adaptation „Super Mario Bros.“ (1993) and the independent exploitation film „The Zodiac Killer“ (1971), which was allegedly only made to catch the real Zodiac Killer.
