Congo

2025-06-27

Congo had the pedigree of a blockbuster: based on a Michael Crighton novel, produced by Kathleen Kennedy, directed by Frank Marshall, and featuring creatures by Stan Winston. It wanted to be the next Jurassic Park. And with a budget nearly as big, it sure tried. But instead of dino-sized success, we got killer gorillas, laser guns, and Tim Curry doing... whatever that accent was.  Now, 30 years later, Congo is back in the spotlight with Now Playing Podcast’s new Patron-exclusive review. Is it a misunderstood adventure classic or just monkey business?
