Gorilla at Large is a 1954 American horror mystery film made in 3D. The film stars Cameron Mitchell, Anne Bancroft, Lee J.

Directed by Harmon Jones, it was made by Panoramic Productions, and distributed through 20th Century Fox in Technicolor and 3D.

Production

Production for Gorilla at Large took place at Nu Pike Amusement Park in Long Beach, California. The crew had the use of the amusement park from midnight until morning for approximately a week.

Although released through 20th Century Fox, the film was made by Leonard Goldstein's Panoramic Productions. The idea behind the deal that was made between the two companies was that Fox would focus and release primarily CinemaScope films, and Panoramic would be its supplier of flat widescreen ratio films.

Rather than make different posters for the 2D and 3D release of this movie, only a flat (non 3D) poster was made. Poster snipes with 3D were furnished to use on the posters for theatres showing the 3D version. This was common practice at the point that the film was released because fewer theaters were booking 3D films in their stereoscopic form.
