fay wray it was beauty that killed the beast

"Oh, no, it wasn't the airplanes. It was beauty killed the beast." . . Not a great movie (it was just ok!), but innovative in how it impacted special effects at the time. King Kong is a cultural icon, and the film is a staple in the creature feature genre! Also how can you not love Fay Wray's screams? . . . #kingkong #creaturefeature #creaturefeatures #monstermovie #monstermovies #monster #precode #precodefilms #faywray
