Summary: Apes, apes, and more apes. This one's from Asia, so some good old Tokusatsu work is in order. That, and wild women.

Notable Kills: Nothing special.

Scariness Factor: 3.5-We have ourselves a very standard giant ape. His facial expressions can be a bit off-putting, though.

-In reality, the Peking Man refers to some ancient remains of Homo Erectus, one of man's earliest ancestors.
