Beneath The Planet of the Apes. 1970.

A sole survivor of a interplanetary rescue mission looks for survivors from the first expedition only to uncover a planet ruled by apes and a city underneath ruled by telepathic humans.

This was a decent follow up to the first film, Linda Harrison and Charlton Heston makes a small appearance at the start and towards the end so we can only assume what he went through with the telepathic humans. Kim Hunter also returns as the sympathetic Zira and David Watson as Cornelius. This part follows Brent (James Francisus) who somehow landed at the near exact same time as Taylor only to discover intelligent apes.

Even though this may seem to drag on for a little bit, it does get interesting on how subterranean humans seem to be at war with the apes and seeking help to over rule them and looking for a way to kill them and reclaim the planet for humans. Only thing i found creepy about this film was the humans when they were chanting to their god with their natural scarred faces.
