Planet of the Apes (1968) isn’t just a sci-fi classic — it’s a chilling reflection of humanity’s worst tendencies. Directed by Franklin J. Schaffner and starring Charlton Heston, Roddy McDowall, Kim Hunter, and Maurice Evans, the film offers a grim warning about power, dehumanization, and the self-destructive path of civilization.

We explore the social commentary embedded in Michael Wilson and Rod Serling’s screenplay, the groundbreaking special effects by John Chambers, and why the story’s themes of class, race, and nuclear paranoia still resonate today. From its iconic twist ending at the Statue of Liberty to Heston’s unforgettable performance, we break down why Planet of the Apes remains essential viewing for fans of science fiction and dystopian cinema.
