Happy 50th Birthday, Gigan! (A Review of Godzilla vs. Gigan)

from On Monster Island - a Godzilla and Kaiju Podcast · host YHS Media Network

Happy 50th, Gigan! The intrepid hosts of YHS on Monster Island go back to 1972 and tackle a film that brings us everything that we need - corn-on-the-cob, cockroaches, rock climbing fatalities, action tapes, and World Children's Land! Yes, of course, they are talking Godzilla vs. Gigan - but do they love this blood-splashing live action manga? Or are they overcome with the onslaught of stock footage and talking kaiju? Tune in to find out!   But it's not all gabbing about Gigan...Jake and Jay cover recent news including the new Toho short film project (okay, that IS about Gigan) and recent Super7 teases. In the "What Did We Pick Up Segment", we get some Marusan BioGojis and the creation of "The Orochi Club".  Enjoy!
