[From Wikipedia] Son of Kong (also known as The Son of Kong) is a 1933 American Pre-Code adventure monster film produced by RKO Pictures. Directed by Ernest Schoedsack and featuring special effects by Buzz Gibson and Willis O’Brien, the film stars Robert Armstrong, Helen Mack and Frank Reicher. The film is the lesser-known sequel to King Kong and was released just nine months after its predecessor.

Conan the Barbarian

I just watched the 2011 re-imagining of Conan the Barbarian. I haven’t seen the 1982 original since the 80’s so I can’t really compare. This one was very good, lots of excitement, pretty non-stop action. I would give it a solid 3.5 of 5 stars.
[From Wikipedia]  Conan the Barbarian is a fictional sword and sorcery hero who originated in pulp magazines and has since been adapted to books, comics, several films (including Conan the Barbarian and Conan the Destroyer), television programs (animated and live-action), video games, role-playing games, and other media. The character was created by writer Robert E. Howard in 1932 for a series of fantasy stories published in Weird Tales magazine.
[From Wikipedia] Conan the Barbarian is a 2011 American sword and sorcery film based on the character of the same name created by Robert E. Howard. The film is a new interpretation of the Conan mythology, and is not related to the films featuring Arnold Schwarzenegger.
