Viewing Notes

Final night of G-Fest was the film that started it all, the original Gojira (1954). I have always wanted to see the original version on the big screen and it really was an awesome evening! Amazing how terrifying the original Japanese version is compared to the neutered US version. Nice to close out G-Fest on a high note!
