When Horror Came to Shochiku!

from The Kaiju Transmissions Podcast · host Kaiju Transmissions Podcast

Byrd, Matt and Tom are back with another October horror special.  This time we will be talking about three horror films from Shochiku Studios; Goke, Body Snatcher From Hell, The Living Skeleton and Genocide.  Normally a studio known for family dramas and art house films, Shochiku made a run of genre films (also including their kaiju opus The X From Outer Space) to try and produce a hit in a time when the Japanese film industry was on life support.  How did this brief experiment go for the desperate studio?  Listen and find out!
