Beneath the Planet of the Apes

First sequel to the l968 movie version of Planet of the Apes. It stars Charlton Heston(although he is in a very small supporting role) and James Fransicus(although Burt Reynolds was originally intended for this role) who is just as wooden an actor as is Heston. The military Ape General was originally supposed to be played by Orson Welles which would have given this "sci-fi" movie a little more class. The ending takes place under the planet's surface with a confrontation between an army of apes, Heston and Fransicus and a mutated white robed peoples who worship "the bomb." The planet is destroyed by the A bomb going off via the hand of Heston. . . .
