Viewing Notes

Interesting film by Honda to follow up Godzilla. It’s very similar to Creature from the Black Lagoon. Wonder if he he seen that and was inspired to make this movie which has many of the same story beats. Not nearly as good as that film this is still a poignant man vs beast fable.

Glad TKU broadcast this as it’s been one on my wishlist for a while. Just wish the streaming was better. Had to watch via my phone bc the stream was freezing.
