Ingagi has King Kong beat by three years (1930 vs. 1933).

From IMDB: Igagi plot;
An expedition enters an area of the Congo jungle to investigate reports of a gorilla-worshipping tribe. After many dangerous adventures, they come upon the tribe they sought, only to watch as a virgin is sacrificed to a huge gorilla, who takes her away. The expedition follows the gorilla in an attempt to save the woman.

However, I'm sure King Kong was seen by way more people.
