What's left behind the scenes
- The film ranks 15th in attendance among foreign films in Soviet cinema distribution.
- In Japan, the film was shown as "King Kong 2".
- Peter Michael Getz received a check for 3 cents after the film's run. He stapled the check to the film's poster in his house and never cashed it.
- Linda Hamilton agreed to star in the film after seeing how filming in the first film ('King Kong', 1976, John Guillermin) made Jessica Lange a major star. During filming, she had no idea what the final result would be like, and when she saw the film, she was horrified – and rightly so, because both critics and audiences considered it terrible.
- During the filming of this movie, director John Gilleremin was in mourning for his son, Michael, who died during the filming of his previous adventure film, "Sheena – Queen of the Jungle" (1984). It often happened that right in the middle of the workday, he would halt filming and go sailing. Once, after another scandal (and he was a notorious troublemaker), he disappeared for several days. The filming was completed for him by documentarian Charles McCrecken, who was only 21 years old at the time.
