"Beware the beast Man, for he is the Devil's pawn."
A space mission goes wrong and the crew crash lands on an unknown planet after being catapulted into the future. They find the land populated by primative and mute humans, but are then captured by highly evolved apes. Apes that talk! Colonel George Taylor (Charlton Heston) is seperated from his crew and has to find a way to escape his captors and a way back home, if possible.
Popular sci-fi, that spawned a number of sequels and a beautifully made, but some what lacking re-make, but this version is blessed with a great script, good performances and great ape costumes. As is often the case, original is best.
