Go and Get It is a 1920 American silent adventure/horror/comedy film directed by Marshall Neilan and Henry Symonds. The plot revolves around the violent murders of an ape-man, a gorilla given the brain of a brutal criminal by a mad scientist, and an inteprid newsman who tries to find out the cause of them. [1] The film garnered many positive reviews, particularly lauding former boxer Bull Montana's performance as the ape-man.

Despite its praise and popularity, the film was thought to have been lost, until a copy was found in the Cineteca Italiana film archive in Italy.[2]
