    War Of The Gargantuans

    I saw this movie for the first time last night. Anyone else ever see it? I rather enjoyed it, for what it was.

    I saw it when I was ten and it left an indelible mark on my brain. "The Words Get Stuck in my Throat" was once covered by DEVO.

      a few years ago I saw the Japanese version and discovered it was a sequel to Frankenstein Conquered the World.

            Scared the poop out of me when I was a kid.

            The part when the Green one ate the girl is in my top 5 list of most disturbing moments in a movie for a kid (me, that is)

                        i saw this movie as a kid ,and it was scary ,the most chilling was when the fishing man looked down in the water
                        and saw the green gargantunan looking up at him ,and the part where the green one (bad guy)was chasing the
                        sailors in the water .i bought this on dvd ,a toho dvd that also had the movie rodan .

                          Yes! There was some very interesting shots in this movie. For its time it was done very well.

                            That shot of the fisherman seeing the green Gargantua in the water is also one of the images that vividly stayed with me over the years, too. Great moment.
