***Originally titled “Attack of the Blurry Ape”*** The Asylum’s “King of the Lost World” (2005) is a TV knockoff of Peter Jackson’s “King Kong,” released one day before that blockbuster during Christmas. While there’s a giant ape and an island of colossal creatures, the similarities end there. This has more to do with Arthur Conan Doyle's fantasy/adventure novel “The Lost World” (1912) than “King Kong.” The plot revolves around a group of survivors of a plane wreck who search the mysterious island; and clash with the giant creatures & primitive-type people that dwell there. The movie only cost $1 million and the blurry CGI creatures look it. If you can get past that, there’s quite a bit to like here for fans of comic book adventure flicks, especially of the lost on a deserted island variety. Imagine “Mysterious Island” (1961) if it was done on a miniscule budget, like "Planet of the Dinosaurs" (1977), and that’s what this is. The Asylum’s “The Land that Time Forgot” (2009) is comparable, but that one had over double the money to spend, as did the 1974 film with Doug McClure. Another point of reference is those cheesy primeval flicks from Hammer back in the day, like “The Lost Continent” (1968) and “When Dinosaurs Ruled the Earth” (1970). If you don’t appreciate Grade B (or Grade C) adventure fare like this I’d suggest passing but, if you can roll with it, the story and cast are decent, highlighted by curvy Sarah Lieving in form-fitting shorts, not to mention a couple others. The Southern Cal locations feature magnificent coastlines, lush jungles, cool caves and barren landscapes. The film runs 1 hour, 20 minutes and was shot at Pikake Gardens, Valley Center, and San Diego County, California. GRADE: C
