The Beast From 20,000 Fathoms: The First Kaiju?

On this episode of YHS on Monster Island, the intrepid duo of daikaiju devotees, "The Tattooed Titan of Tokusatsu", Jacob Walsh and sidekick, Jay Key, dive into the 1953 cinematic triumph - The Beast From 20,000 Fathoms. The conversation covers everything from the Rhedosaurus' claim as the "first kaiju", the timely usage of Ra Bradbury's "The Fog Horn", the film's importance in the kaiju genre, as well as a handful of tangents ranging from Bradbury's " A Sound of Thunder" to the charming nature of outdated dinosaur paleobiology.    On top of that, Jake and Jay go through some recent news such as Disney+'s  Kong series announcement, Marusan's Soft Vinyl Summer Festa exclusives, and much more! We also get some top flight weekly pick ups from Marmit, M1, SHMonsterArts, just to name a few!  Check out YHS on Monster Island...and please like and subscribe!
