Go ape! Killer simians in cinema – ranked!

As Kong continues to terrorise us in Godzilla x Kong: The New Empire, we rate some chilling chimps

Despite the English title, there’s only one “ape” in this cheesy slice of Mexploitation, once labelled a video nasty. A mad doctor transplants the heart of a gorilla into his dying son; the youth turns into a homicidal simian creep who sexually assaults women. Also features a lady luchador.
