Planet of the Apes (1968)

A pilot finds himself stranded in an upside-down world--a brutal, primal place where intelligent apes are in charge and humans scavenge for subsistence, hunted and enslaved by the tyrannical primates. The sudden appearance of this outsider, immune to the established order, challenges the status quo and becomes a catalyst for revolutionary social change.
