Shakma
Directed by Tom Logan
A genetically-mutated baboon goes bananas in this sickening slice of animal horror. Professor Sorenson (PLANET OF THE APES' Roddy McDowall) is the head of a university med school who injects Shakma, a genetically mutated baboon with a drug meant to reduce its rage. Unfortunately it does the opposite, and later, while Sorenson's students are playing a live-action role playing game in the building, the ape goes bananas and starts killing people. Soon, the students have to play a new game called "Run away from Shakma." You won't soon forget this murderous monkey.

I got tired of it halfway through the film. I wouldn't waste your time on this film.
One of my faves on Shudder for real. So funny, definitely check out the trailer on YouTube first, it's excellent. Admittedly slow in spots, but worth it for some real quality comedy. SHAKMAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAA!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
This frightened the hell out of me when I was kid.
It’s bad but in a somewhat entertaining way? Not scary at all but the 80s vibes and cheesy characters make it fun.
This dumb fun schlocky monster b-movie is my kind of jam
