While it is more preferable to get "Mighty Joe Young" in English version but I have to also open the possibility for this title in German or French.

So in digest version and/or full version what this title is translated to both languages.

ps: I am not looking for a free translation but the exact title used for 8mm release.

IMDB say

Monsieur Joe in France

Panik um King Kong in West Germany

Thanks Manuel, I have known that too from IMDB>

But this is the funny thing in 8mm. You do not always get the official title when looking for 8mm release. They used sometime pseudo title.

So can anyone confirm that the 8mm release used the titles suggested by Manuel above?

I would think if they released a multi reel version Winbert, that
they would think up their own titles,just to add to the confusion
like a lot of companies did with separate 400's that made up a
feature.Who said life was easy.
