Konga is a 1961 Eastmancolor monster film directed by John Lemont and starring Michael Gough, Margo Johns and Austin Trevor. It was written by Herman Cohen and Aben Kandel.
Production
Following the success of Herman Cohen's previous British made film Horrors of the Black Museum (1959) that also featured Michael Gough, Nat Cohen (no relation to Herman) of Anglo-Amalgamated asked Cohen for another exploitation film.
As Cohen had long admired King Kong (1933), he thought of a giant ape film shot in colour. Due to Cohen's success with his I Was a Teenage Werewolf (1957), AIP used "I Was a Teenage Gorilla" as the working title. Cohen paid RKO Pictures $25,000 for the rights to the name of Kong for exploitation purposes.
It was shot at Merton Park Studios and in Croydon. The climactic scene in London streets was possible when the producer convinced the police that the scenes could be effectively staged late at night on essentially empty streets. The resultant mayhem was especially alarming for residents, who were awakened by sounds of gunfire.
Paul Stockman (uncredited) was the actor inside the ape suit. In an interview, he revealed: "How I came to get the part of Konga: my agent told me there was an American producer looking for a six-foot actor. Would I go to Mac's Rehearsal Rooms, Leicester Square, London? So I toddled along; I walked into the room and there's 20 six-foot tall blokes! I thought, "Oh, dear, it's a lineup!" Anyway, the producer Herman Cohen came in carrying a big card…
