I recognize the scene at "lover's lane", as being the main scene of movie in which the filming in the area took place. I was a young child and in elementary school at White Oak Elementary, when huge helicopters were flying giant gorilla parts (arms and legs) around the area! It was too exciting for me and I was completely fascinated with this. These areas are south east of Jellico, TN and also provide some beautiful and breath taking scenery. For the movie King Kong Lives, there were scenes that were filmed in the White Oak and Morley communities, of TN. One thing is certain, the mountains of Eastern TN, Southeastern, KY and Southwestern VA are some of the best country on the eastern seaboard however, they are all too often overlooked. I also believe one scene was filmed on old TN highway 63, between Carryville and Pioneer, TN I am not positive about this however. However, Steven Alexander Poff kindly updated to say that the beginning wasn't filmed in Corbin, Ky. Not only does the area provide a gorgeous view, one can also experience standing on three states at one time on the top of the mountain. The big rock on the left of the screen is/was a dead give-away I've photographed the rock many times. I recognized the overlook at Pinnacle Overlook on my first viewing of the film in the early 90's. I do believe the river crossing scene, at the beginning of the film, the stone bridge, is at Cumberland Falls, in Corbin, KY. "Big Business" was also filmed on location in a wide variety of places including Kentucky, New York City, Ohio and Tennessee. HOT NEWS!

So grab some refreshments, sit back, and enjoy another great from those people who brought us " Ruthless People". Now take this fear and turn it into a comedy about the rich against the poor. There was quite a fear in the 80's about babies being switched at birth.
