APES. Apes seemed to terrify people back then...not that the ferocious beasts can't send a little chill to the spine nowadays...
I'm thinking King Kong (1933) and its sequels, Gorilla at Large (1954), The Ape Man (1943), The Ape (1940), Killer Ape (1943), Gorilla (1939, 1956), and Konga (1961), among others.
Low-budget optioners seemed to think that the American audience was horrified by monkeys...or, as the case often was, people dressed like them.
