Except,King Kong Livestells us, he didnt really die at all.
Only one thing can save Kong now, Franklin says gloomily.
Its a her… and a damn good looking one, too!
Mitchell calls the creature Lady Kong, and calls up the Atlanta Institute about his discovery.
Were not lancing a haemorrhoid here, Franklin points out.
Were replacing a heart.
Lady Kongs distinct musk causes King Kong to stir from his anaesthetised slumber (Horny sonofabitch!

King Kongs final scene is unique, in that its both absolutely ridiculous and moving.
It was a hoot when I finally saw those monkeys flirt and bat their eyes, Hamiltonsaid.
