DAMN DIRTY APES: Washed-up prizefighter Reggie Levine is eking a living as a strip club bouncer when he's offered an unlikely shot at redemption. The Bigelow Skunk Ape -- a mythical creature said to haunt the local woods-- has kidnapped the high school football mascot, Boogaloo Baboon.

But not everything is as it seems, and as our heroes venture deeper into the heart of darkness, they will discover worse things waiting in the woods than just the Bigelow Skunk Ape.
