- Mighty Joe Young is an RKO Radio Pictures film made in 1949 by the same creative team responsible for King Kong. Written by Merian C. Cooper (who provided the story) and Ruth Rose (screenplay), and directed by Ernest B. Schoedsack, it tells the story of a young woman, 'Jill Young', played by Terry Moore, living on her father's farm in Africa, who ends up bringing the title character — a giant ape — to Hollywood. The movie co-stars Ben Johnson, as 'Gregg', in his first major role. Willis O'Brien, who created the animation for King Kong, was the supervisor of special effects on this film, although by some accounts the majority of the animation was performed by Ray Harryhausen. The models (constructed by Kong's builder Marcel Delgado) and animation are more sophisticated than Kong's, containing more subtle gestures and even some comedic elements, such as one chase scene where Joe is riding in the back of a speeding truck and he spits at his pursuers. Despite this increased technical sophistication, this film, like Kong, features some serious scale issues, with Joe noticeably changing size between many shots. (The title character is not supposed to be as large as Kong - perhaps 10-12 feet tall. ) Harryhausen has attributed these lapses to producer Cooper, who insisted Joe appear larger in some scenes for dramatic effect. The film has become a minor classic, and has an affectionate following. Special effects artists consider it highly influential, with the elaborate orphanage rescue sequence lauded as one of the great stop-motion sequences in film history. It was remade in 1998 with Charlize Theron playing 'Jill Young'. Another remake that takes place around 1949 is in talks.
- Panik um King Kong ist ein US-amerikanischer Abenteuer- und Fantasyfilm von Regisseur Ernest B. Schoedsack aus dem Jahr 1949. Dieses zweite Sequel zum originalen King-Kong-Film ist der erste Kinofilm, für den Ray Harryhausen die damals neuartige Stop-Motion-Technik benutzte.
- Monsieur Joe (Mighty Joe Young) est un film américain réalisé par Ernest B. Schoedsack, sorti en 1949.
- 猿人ジョー・ヤングは1949年のアメリカ映画。
- Fantomen från Afrika är en film från 1949. År 1950 vann filmen en Oscar för bästa specialeffekter. År 1998 gjorde Disney en nyinspelning av filmen. Den moderna versionen är, till skillnad från originalet inte gjord så att den matchar tiden då den spelades in, utan visar Joe i modern tid.
