... He was a king and a god in the world he knew, but now he comes to civilization merely a captive--a show to gratify your curiosity. Ladies and gentlemen, look at Kong, the Eighth Wonder of the World!” (King Kong) Carl Denham’s introduction of Kong in New York City from the 1933 film King Kong lacked one important descriptive word--monstrous. Kong is the classic embodiment of a movie monster. Kong appears to be an overgrown ape, but it is his love for Ann Darrow, the film’s lead female character, that brings out his monstrous persona which in the end destroys him.
Kong has the look of an ape but it is his size that shows his monstrous appearance at first. The wall separating the villagers of Skull Island and Kong is the first clue to the incredible size of the beast. ... ” Denham proclaims about the size of Kong’s footprints, “He must be as big as a house!” (King Kong) Kong’s overpowering appearance as a large ape equivalent in size to a house does give a monstrous tone to him, but his actions after meeting Ann are what truly define him as a monster.
