And that might be the best thing I can say about Godzilla Vs Gigan(1972). This movie is somewhat uneven for me, because it has a lot of things I like and some I do not. I did not like the effects used to render the aliens, who in this film are insect-like, resembling cockroaches. Nothing more than shadows on the walls are used to suggest what they look like, as opposed to actually showing what they look like. Like "KaijuFanatic" I also thought the movie started somewhat slowly, which for me is never too good. As to what I liked the kaiju battle scenes were great, with lots of explosions and other formidable pyrotechnic effects on display to showcase the talents of Teruyoshi Nakano and his effects crew. The initial kaiju battle at the oil refinery is still one of my favorite kaiju battle scenes from all Godzilla movies. I also admit I had a crush, for a long time, on Yuriko Hishimi, the karate kicking girlfriend of the comic artist in this movie-she also played "Anne" in the Ultraseven TV series. |
