OTD in Otakusatsu fandoms: "Gorgo" begins in US theaters. Initially created to be more of an homage to Godzilla, #Gorgo is an American -British joint kaiju movie production, which features 2 kaiju *an adult and child* and some il-advised 'scientific' exploitation. It received a #comic book adapatation. (...personal note: this is my Mom's favorite 'giant monster movie' 😎) ⠀ ⠀ #kaiju #daikaiju #ogra #gorgosaurus #britian #greatbritain #britishtv #britishfilm #england #tokusatsu #bigben #vintagecinema #1961 #oldmovies #scifi #godzilla #english #onthisdate #onthisday #奥特曼 #giantmonster #kaijueiga #漫画 #特撮 #怪獣 #OtakusatsuOTD
