Space Monster Wangmagwi (1967) by Dopepope on Artstation.

This movie beat Yongary, Monster of the Deep to theaters by almost two months, which makes it South Korea's oldest serving kaiju film.

I finally managed to finish this film (it took three tries) and for my money Yongary is the better of the two.

Wangmagwi's story was just too disjointed for me; there were (not very funny) comedy bits interspersed that stopped the barely-there narrative; the monster costume looks like a quickie Hallowe'en costume your grandma slapped together with scraps of carpet; and the budget was so low that the monster stepped over buildings instead of smashing them, so those same buildings could be used for later scenes.

For me that picture by Dopepope (above) is a whole lot more impressive than the film that inspired it.

In my opinion, Space Monster Wangmagwi is only worth watching for kaiju completists.

Or if you and your friends have been drinking heavily and want something to watch. It actually might make a lot more sense then.

The government had already exceeded its annual budget for repairs to Tokyo Tower.

Ultraman Teo (Ep 1)

Lost his planet and everyone in it. Still struggles with past trauma and fear but overcomes himself and fight. That’s what makes him a hero.

Watching the Ultraman Teo English dub (very well done, as is par for the course for TsuPro's Ultra dubs for the last few years), and they continue to do an amazing job with translating onscreen text.

The 'Burbs (1989) dir. Joe Dante

And we run around vaulting fences and peeking in windows and throwing garbage in the street and setting fires and acting suspicious and paranoid! We're the lunatics, Art! Not them. Us!

Arbitrarily decided I am celebrating this weekend by rewatching the Rebirth of Mothra thrillogy

[monsters-conquer-the-world]

This film thrillogy feels like a beloved, obscure Sega Saturn/Dreamcast action-RPG/rail shooter/magical girl series. Like an Ecco the Dolphin/Lisa Frank bullet hell/arcade shooter (Compliment)

Nothing hits like 90s Japan + fantasy. Dagarha is my BOI. Rebirth of Mothra The Film Thrillogy honestly feels like the flavor-blasted 90s version of Showa Gamera. (T-t-t-turbo Compliment)
