GODZILLA(GOJIRA)(1954)
The original Japanese release of this classic "horror" film!!
Godzilla does not make an appearance until 22+ minutes into
the film! This film was a direct response to the bombing of
Herosima, Nagasaki and Tokyo, blaming radiation for the appearance
of Godzilla!!
Surprisingly, this is the very first time I'd ever seen the
original release(2022)! Much different then the re-make in
1956! This is more about love and sacrifice and the horrors
of nuclear war than a monster movie!! Well worth a watch or
two, even though, being a Japanese movie and totally in Japanese,
you have to read it as well as watch it!!!
The specials on this disc are maybe more valuable than the
movie itself, and truly should be watched by every human!! A
From IMDb.com:
Pure classic sci-fi horror monster! I don't know how they
made some of it seem so real, it's a wild gritty epic
gargantua. The destruction was done so well and the
emotions were admirable! - UniqueParticle
