Viewing Notes

Been so long since I’ve seen this it’s not even logged here. So 16+ years!

This is a 6/10 for most of the runtime but those last 10 minutes are wonderful. Hilarious that Ifukube did the score using a similar arrangement as his Godzilla score.

Looks like they just used the same DVD transfer on this Mill Creek set. Wonder if the Arrow release is restored.
