Yes, this is going to be one of those IMHO posts, and you may or may not agree with which King Kong film is my favorite. No problem, we all know what we like. I might also add that I’m only talking about the three American-made films actually titled King Kong, as well...

That title is a double entendre, don’t you know? In the first place, the giant worm-things known as graboids are back on the small screen in Tremors: Shrieker Island (2020), the seventh film in the long-running Tremors franchise. And second, when a graboid dies a...
