Viewing Notes

Viewed on TKU-TV part of their monster week programming. They say it’s the oldest know tokusatsu film. Not sure if that’s true or not but this was definitely entertaining remake of the James Whale classic (an absolute favorite from the UniMonster stable). Neat to see Tsuburaya’s early VFX work, which makes for an effective invisible man.
