Ape vs. Monster: Asylum knock-off of Godzilla vs. Kong reveals release date

Last Updated on August 2, 2021

So Asylum – the shlock-tastic studio behind mockbuster bullshit like Transmorphers, Atlantic Rim, and Independents' Day (as well as the inexplicably popular Sharknado series) – is still a thing, and it is at it again with their obvious Godzilla vs. Kong rip-off Ape vs. Monster, which now has a release date of April 30th, and will be available simultaneously in theaters and VOD. It will then be available on DVD a month later on May 30th.

Here's the official synopsis:

An ape crash-lands on Earth, which creates a sludge that makes him and a passing scorpion grow to giant-size, resulting in a fight for dominance.

Meanwhile, Ape vs. Monster is directed by Daniel Lusko (lol, Top Gunner), and stars the forever slumming it Eric Roberts (A Talking Cat!?!). 

So what do you guys think? And what do you think is the most egregious Asylum film? Either way, sound off below!
