A campy 1950s B-movie horror-fantasy that plays absurdist premise—a woman's past-life connection to gorillas—for both pulp thrills and unintentional comedy.

When Laura and Dan get married, she's more interested in Dan's gorilla. It's revealed through hypnosis that she was Queen of the Gorillas in a previous incarnation.
