Viewing Notes

Happy 50th Anniversary to this low budget kaiju scorcher, released on this day in 1972.

Super sad that Criterion doesn’t include the hilarious English dub that was done for this movie. I’ve listened to it a half dozen times in the past couple of weeks and it’s great.

One of these days I’ll get a proper Gigan X-plus figure.
