Professors Dexter and Gilmore have successfully reawakened a tramp who had been frozen for four months. This was a preliminary stage for a more ambitious attempt at bringing a prehistoric man back to life. After a lengthy search, the two researchers find a body frozen in a block of arctic. Back at the lab, they revive him but he is unable to communicate with them and quite violent. He manages to escape his holding cell and kill a policeman on the street. Dexter decides he must replace part of his brain to make him more compliant and capable of talking. His first choice of a brain donor is the fiance of Gilmore’s niece, Anne. This upsets Gilmore so much that he pulls a gun on Dexter, threatening to shoot if he continues. Dexter is so angry that he schemes to use Gilmore’s brain instead. Once accomplished, the modified ape man escapes and heads to Gilmore’s house.

How to Watch Return of the Ape Man Legally and Safely

If you want to stream Return of the Ape Man through reputable and legal services, there are a few good options depending on where you are. Subscription platforms like HBO Max, Disney+, Netflix, Amazon Prime Video, and Apple TV+ sometimes carry Return of the Ape Man films or related DC titles—though availability depends on your country.

If you’d rather not commit to a subscription, there are ad‑supported, free (but legal) platforms such as Tubi, Pluto TV, Peacock or Crackle (where available in your region) that occasionally host superhero films.

Lastly, don’t forget about library‑linked streaming options like Kanopy or Hoopla (if your library or university is registered), and official uploads by film distributors on YouTube—these can also give you legal access to classic movies.
