PLANET OF THE APES: Charlton Heston stars as Taylor, an astronaut who crash-lands on a mysterious world where intelligent apes rule...and hunt primitive, speechless humans for sport. Soon, Taylor's life depends on the kindness of the chimpanzee scientists Cornelius and Zira (Roddy McDowall and Kim Hunter) and his escape to the Forbidden Zone, where he uncovers an earth-shattering secret that may hold the key to his own destiny.
BENEATH THE PLANET OF THE APES: In this gripping sequel to PLANET OF THE APES, another astronaut (James Franciscus) crashes through the time barrier searching for Taylor (Charlton Heston). The daring rescue mission leads to a subterranean city where mutant humans worship a weapon capable of destroying the entire planet.
ESCAPE FROM THE PLANET OF THE APES: Roddy McDowall and Kim Hunter reprise their original roles as Cornelius and Zira in this third chapter of the Apes saga. When two intelligent simians travel from the future to present-day Earth, they enjoy celebrity status -- until a government plot forces them to run for their lives!
CONQUEST OF THE PLANET OF THE APES: Colorful, futuristic sets, a relentless pace and an action-packed climax highlight the fourth episode of the legendary Apes saga, starring Roddy McDowall and Ricardo Montalban. The time is the near future. Apes have supplanted dogs and cats as household pets, and replaced servants as personal assistants - until their continual mistreatment provokes one advanced ape from the future, Caesar (McDowall), to lead a spectacular revolt. It's thrilling science fiction that offers both a serious message and stirring entertainment.
BATTLE FOR THE PLANET OF THE APES: In this spectacular final chapter of the legendary Apes saga, an idyllic society of peaceful coexistence is threatened when militant gorillas and a tribe of mutant humans clash with the benevolent leader (Roddy McDowall), pitting man against ape in an explosive, apocalyptic climax!
