Beneath the Planet of the Apes (1970)

Beneath the Planet of the Apes is a science fiction film released in 1970, directed by Ted Post and written by Paul Dehn. It is the sequel to the immensely popular Planet of the Apes (1968) and the second installment in the original Apes film series. This thrilling movie dives deeper into the dystopian world set thousands of years in the future, where apes have evolved into an advanced civilization dominating Earth.

The film follows the journey of Brent (played by James Franciscus), an astronaut who crash-lands on this strange, evolved planet. He soon discovers that intelligent apes rule over mute, aboriginal humans who worship a hidden doomsday weapon. In his search for Taylor (played by Charlton Heston), the protagonist from the first film who has gone missing, Brent encounters Nova (played by Linda Harrison), a human who can speak, and together they strive to uncover the secrets of this eerie planet.

Beneath the Planet of the Apes boasts a talented cast, including renowned actors like James Franciscus and Charlton Heston. Franciscus delivers a compelling performance as the brave astronaut Brent, capturing the audience's attention with his determination and courage. Heston, reprising his role as Taylor, makes a powerful appearance even though his character has limited screen time. Linda Harrison's portrayal of Nova adds to the emotional depth of the film, as she transcends the typical role of a damsel in distress and becomes an integral part of the narrative.

One of the most intriguing aspects of this film is the exploration of the apes' society. We delve further into their political system, religious beliefs, and ideological conflicts. The advanced ape civilization is led by Lawgiver (played by John Huston), who delivers captivating monologues about the history and rules of ape society. These scenes provide fascinating insights into the ape's oppressive rule and their relationship with the subjugated human population.

The movie takes a dark turn as Brent and Nova stumble upon an underground society of mutated humans, a result of Earth's nuclear war. These mutants' telepathic powers and their worship of a powerful bomb bring the film to its gripping climax. It raises questions about the nature of humanity and the destructive potential of advanced technology.

The exceptional sound design and score by Leonard Rosenman enhance the eerie atmosphere of the film. From the distant cries of the apes to the telepathic sounds of the mutants, the audio elements captivate audiences and deepen the sense of immersion in this post-apocalyptic world.

While Beneath the Planet of the Apes received mixed reviews upon its release, it has become a cult classic for fans of the franchise. Its themes, performances, and suspenseful storyline continue to captivate audiences today.

A bend in time.
A map..a map,
A minute ago, that wasn't here.
A planet where apes evolved from men?
A stuffed specimen
A.D.
Ah, yes, towards the north.
All bone and no brains.
All right,
All right!
Almighty God.
And as a soldier, I see things simply.
And as dangerous.
And dreaded it.
And how would you put it right?
And rightly so.
And the 12th returned with incredible stories
And the time is always now.
And these grounds we can obtain
And this, too.
And you shall have it, Dr. Zaius,
Are you so blind, you two psychologists
As Minister of science,
As Minister ofScience,
As soon as you can.
As soon as you feel better,
As your husband, please, I beg you to stand.
At least our child, when it's born,
Be it man or some other creature,
Between evil and good.
Between the lake and the sea.
Beware the beastman,
Brent.
Brent...
Bring them inside.
But his nails need clipping.
But I'm not staying here.
But if they live, and live they do,
But our great Lawgiver tells us
But that is appalling!
But those fortunate enough
But we're both here,
But which sun?
By some unsimian torture.
By what or by whom we don't know,
Can you... Can you talk?
Clinical interest.
Come on.
Cornelius hit me
Cornelius is right. Be very careful.
Cornelius, open the door.
Dare to contaminate that innocence.
Dead.
Deep into the territory we call..
Did he give it to you?
Did you contact Earth?
Do you like chocolate?
Don't look for it, Taylor.
Don't try to follow us.
Dr. Zaius, how nice.
Everyone.
Female.
Follow the shoreline.
For being able to distinguish
For he is the Devil's pawn.
For he is the harbinger of death.
For he will make a desert of his home and yours.
For my bad behavior at the meeting.
Foryour principles and mine.
General, I only pray
General, I only pray
Go to the head of the class.
God Almighty.
God, if I could only see the sun.
Good bye, Dr. Zaius, and good luck.
Good luck.
Gorillas are cruel because they're stupid..
Have been unable to fathom.
Have you a horse?
He kills for sport or lust or greed.
He was a fine, a unique specimen.
He..he would still be here,
Here.
Hey!
His destiny.
His..his mind gone, shattered no doubt
Hmm? Your glorious leader back there.
How can you have any doubt?
However, we now have evidence
Huh?
I am a simple soldier,
I am asking for a truce
I am asking you to be the guardians
I don't agree.
I don't blame him.
I don't know how or what with,
I don't know what planet we're on,
I don't know where.
I don't know.
I don't know. Our computer's shot.
I don't much care for it.
I don't resent it,
I don't say all humans are evil
I don't want to hurt you.
I got to get out. I got to get back up there.
I just want to know where I am.
I lived here,
I mean, your people, where are they? How do l..
I n a whole lifetime
I n my opinion, Skipper,
I nto the Forbidden Zone with Ursus.
I should be dissecting
I shouldn't be cutting up
I took an Earth time reading
I tried to, sir. Not a crackle.
I wish you would not talk like that.
I...
I..Don't be afraid.
I'd better get you another set ofclothes,
I'll tell you one thing every good soldier knows.
I'm not the only one.
I'm pretty handy with this.
I'm trying to find him.
I've only found one other like you who could talk.
I've seen the delicate, humane way they treat humans here.
I've wet nursed their babies
If I had any proper sense
If I should fail to return from the unknown,
If it's 3955 A.D....
If you lose me...
If you lose me...
If you will look up here,
Ifwe had that power here in our hands,
Ignorance is!
In an hour of public danger.
In the Forbidden Zone,
In the great hall of the Zaius Museum,
In the once Forbidden Zone.
Into your headstrong wife.
Invade!
Is no longer possible.
Is we that have responsibilities and no power.
It is our holy duty to enter it,
It wasn't here.
It's a bloody nightmare.
It's been a long time
It's my duty to find out
It's up there all right.
J ust me.
J ust relax.
Just before reentry.
Just disappeared,
Just tell me what happened to him.
Just tell me where I am.
Let him not breedin great numbers,
Let me finish this up and get you out of here!
Let me finish this up and get you out of here!
Let no one,
Let us have no violence, Cornelius.
Listen now.
Look, can you get me some food, some..some water,
Look, is there... is there someone...
Look.
Lucky?
May be yours to preserve or destroy,
Me,
Members of the Citizens' Council,
Militaristic tripe.
Must have happened to him.
My God, did we finally do it?
My God, it's...
My name's Brent.
My two daughters...
My wife...
Naked, merciless force!
Never to speak.
No, Doctor. Decisive.
No, Skipper. It's me.
No, you can't have them.
No, you don't. But I do.
No!
No.
Not until I talk some sense
Nova!
Nova.
Nova.
Nova.
Nova.
Now we invade or we starve.
Now we must replenish the lands
Now, where in hell do we go from here?
Of being used by our Minister ofScience,
Of our guns, wheels, and flags upon it!
Of scientific purpose, Cornelius,
Of that, I'm sure. All my life I've awaited your coming
Of the gorillas.
Of the higher principles of science
Ofour ineluctable power.
Ofour ineluctable power.
Oh, great. Go on, go on.
Oh, my God.
Oh, now, we loved Taylor.
OK, here's the prize.
Only apes can speak.
Only for my principles.
Only please stand!
Open it!
Or I shall hit her again.
Perhaps. But now he has the incident he requires
Put the things away.
Quick!
Quite that long.
Remember?
Right, right, so you can't talk.
Scissors.
Sergeant, wait!
She sees it, too.
Shun him,
Since we've been able to study
So at least I'll have some idea where I'm heading?
So is the future of science,
So whatever happened to us
Some other... someone who can talk?
Somebody is liable to hearyou.
Specimens of such extraordinary
Strange violent earthquakes,
Substandard lobe.
Sure they will.
Take them away.
Taylor now.
Taylor was riding with Nova here,
Taylor.
Taylor.
Taylor.
Taylor.
Taylor.
Taylor.
Taylor.
Taylor.
Thanks.
That never will the human have the ape's divine faculty
That were ravaged by the humans
That you're unaware
That's the idea.
The diseased brains of gorillas
The Forbidden Zone was once a paradise.
The healthy heads of humans.
The kids will learn to talk.
The kind fit for humans, like yourself.
The only good human is a dead human!
The only thing that counts in the end is power.
The trouble with us intellectuals
The unknown.
The whole future ofour civilization
Then they must eat.
There's a time for truth.
They are marked for target practice.
They will dissect you and they will kill you
This is a type E cranium.
This tag,
This used to be my home.
This was the last place that we saw Taylor.
To destroy everything in his path
To expand the boundaries
To find out what went wrong.
To go on a rampage ofconquest.
To have something to eat.
To possess his brother's land.
To put the marks
To remain alive
To remain silent
To the target range!
Uh, wait! Wait!
Vanished into thin air.
Very well, 11 ...
We apes have learned to live in innocence.
We are counting on you, too, Doctor.
We got plenty ofoxygen and water.
We might make it yet.
We passed through a Haslein Curve,
We werejust about
We'd be worse than them.
We'll..we'll run a navigational lesson.
We're breathing, we're conscious,
We're going to be all right, Skipper.
We're lucky to be alive.
Well, I don't plan to stay around here
Well, we were following Taylor's trajectory.
What are you doing here?
What did you get?
What is more dangerous than famine, Doctor?
What is that damn stuff?
What the hell would I have to say to a gorilla?
What will he find out there, Doctor?
What, dear?
What..What could've happened?
What..What happened?
What's that?
Where are you from?
Where are you going?
Where did you get this?
Where is he?
Where is he?
Where is she?
Where will you go?
Where? Where?
Where? Where? Tell us.
Where? Where? Tell us.
While this bully Ursus is permitted to..
Who are you?
Who told you that?
Why don't we settle down and found a colony?
Why, if it had not been for Zira here,
Why, is innocence so evil?
With him fomenting a senseless military adventure.
With his two friends.
With new improved feeding grounds,
With occipital development.
Worked here.
Yea, he will murder his brother
Yeah, if he's still alive.
Yeah, out in the scrub.
Yes, I know. The Forbidden Zone.
Yes, they were heading
Yes...
You can feel it.
You heard Ursus' speech.
You know what you're doing.
You may not like what you find.
You must remember one thing.
You wouldn't know if I told you.
You...
You'll want that taken care of, too.
You're afraid and you hate me. Why?
Zira, Cornelius, untie me.
Zira, stop. You're in danger.
Zira.
Zira. Go find Zira.
11 .
11 .
12... 12 of my finest scouts
3955?
3955.
That shouldn't be difficult. Shh, Zira.
