A planet where apes evolved from men?
Sci-Fi Month continues with a look at the landmark 1968 film Planet of the Apes. Based on the novel by Pierre Boulle, it’s the story of a quartet of astronauts who arrive on a strange planet where three species of apes -- Orangutans, Chimpanzees, and Gorillas -- are the ruling species while bands of mute, primitive humans hide in the forests, occasionally stealing the apes’ crops, and generally being a nuisance.
Richard Hatem and Edward G. Pettit join Mike to discuss the original quintet of films, the Tim Burton misfire, and the more recent trilogy.
