Show Notes

What happens when you rush a sequel but don’t have access to the same stars and visionary director? Well you get a film that fairs better than 1933’s ‘Son of Kong’ but that’s a low bar. Follow a new Godzilla monster and director Motoyoshi Oda as they chart the franchise into sequel territory. We have monster battles, military might on display, and tenuous bonds to the spirit of the first film.

Would you like to know what the monster fights look so fast and odd? Have you ever wondered how this film performed and what people think about it today? Tune in then to this week’s atomic fireball blast from the past in Kaiju Vs. History’s dive into 1955’s Godzilla Raids Again.
