Country: USA

Director: Brad Peyton

Synopsis: Fantasy action adventure. Primatologist Davis Okoye has reared an intelligent gorilla, called George, but when a genetic experiment in space goes wrong and George breathes in a gene-mutating gas from a canister that has fallen from space, he grows to enormous size, becomes aggressive and extremely powerful and goes on the rampage. Furthermore, George is not the only creature affected by the canisters. The company bosses who created the gas try to get a sample from one of the creatures, in order to sell the chemical structure to the arms industry so they can weaponise any animals. Okoye tries to find an antidote to stop George and the other creatures who are tearing Chicago apart.
