Wissenswertes

The Mighty Gorga is a 1969 American science fiction film directed by David L. Hewitt. The storyline concerns a couple hunting for a giant gorilla in Africa for financial gain. Filmed on a minuscule budget, it has become notorious for its poor special effects.

Production

The Mighty Gorga was produced independently on a small budget. It was produced, directed and written by David L. Hewitt, who also played the titular gorilla, albeit uncredited. Hewitt had previously directed a number of B-Movies such as The Wizard of Mars, Journey to the Center of Time and Dr.

Location filming took place primarily in Bronson Canyon and Simi Valley in California. The film contains stock footage of wild animals, shown in the jungle scenes, while footage of a cave monster is taken from the film Goliath and the Dragon. The Mighty Gorga was released in 1969.

The film has since been released on DVD in 2002 as a double-feature with One Million AC/DC. It was released by Something Weird Video.
