The original Japanese version of Kong vs Godzilla actually doesn’t have any white people whatsoever. The film was heavily edited when universal got the American distribution rights.
What I REALLY love about this movie is that it is probably one of the first mainline kaiju films to really explore the nature of the relationship between humans and kaiju, by means of focusing on an entity who almost perfectly straddles the border between the two. Frankenstein's Kaiju is one of the most tragic kaiju of all time for that reason; outwardly resembling a human, but having grown up like an animal with no concept of human society or niceties, wishing no real harm on humans (those reporters he killed in the cell brought it upon themselves by foolishly provoking his wrath), but unable to truly live with humans due to humans and kaiju living in different worlds with different scales (him just trying to catch some breakfast causes destruction and panic). That moment at the end where he rescues the man who wanted to cut off an arm or leg and delivers him to his companions, as kaiju and humans gaze silently at each other there is a great sadness, as both sides so badly wish they could reconcile and co-exist, but that is simply not possible; at that point all there is left to do is fight a kaiju's fight, and share a kaiju's fate, the earth itself swallowing him up, perhaps in an act of mercy in recognition of how truly terrible a tragedy Frankenstein's Kaiju represents.
Such and underrated movie a film kaiju fans don’t talk about nearly as much of not at all as they should in my opinion its just be of Ishiro Honda’s finest film
I remember coming across the trailer for this film back in 2007 and before seeing the trailer, I had no idea this film even existed. I of course had seen Baragon in the Godzilla films he was in and I had heard of the Frankenstein monster . But could believe that there was a film that had the Frankenstein monster turned into a giant fighting against Baragon. When I finally saw the film, I loved it and it remains one of my favourite kaiju films and favourite Frankenstein films.
After watching this film last night I’d be interested in going back in time to tell the author of Frankenstein, Mary Shelley, that her novel will later be adapted by Japanese people into a new form of stage play that will be able to be seen by everyone due to a advanced piece of technology and in the story of it the Monster is mutated by a yet to be discovered destructive substance and grows to giant size and ends up fighting a fire breathing reptile that can dig underground.
Baragon made other appearances between and after this film; Destroy All Monsters, Godzilla’s Revenge and GMK: Giant Monsters All-Out Attack. His other starring role Gamera vs Baragon.
This a has been a recent thought of mine, but maybe creating Sanda wasn't needed. He has basically the same backstory as Frankenstein, a similar enough personality and the more popular Gargantua is Gaira anyway. So they could have doubled down on War of the Gargantuas being a sequel by using Frankenstein in Sanda's role and instead of creating Akemi and Paul Stewart reuse Sueko and James Bowen. Or if Sanda needed to be created Ishiro Honda could have commited to making this a standalone like he wanted to, giving Sanda and Gaira different origins, like them being types of giant apes or both being experiments created by humans to do a nature vs nuture experiment (as soon as he's born Gaira is left in the wild while Sanda is chosen to be the one raised with love and kindness by humans) What sounds like a better direction?
Hold it, baragon is king of the underworld, there are rumors that godzilla and kin kong will fight underground. Could this be a sign of at least an easter egg of baragon?
I wish they would make baragon was seen during these attacks baragon king ghidorah does fight suit was damagely heavily from not use other monsters in ultra questions and ultraman he was not replaced by gorgosaurus
Wow you hurt Baragon fan. It's just how it is. I like Godzilla the most and I was fine when he was defeated or killed. SO just deal with it and stop raging.

The script that became King Kong Vs. Godzilla was bought from America, but it was written and produced in Japan.
@@Blorp52They were Whites on the submarine that awoke Godzilla.
@@JaMarcusRussellGOAT Those were actually Turkish actors
I remember watching this as a kid, had to look it up just incase it was a fever dream
Loll i remember those insane fever dreams as a kid. I dont recall this movie though.
Baragon has to be the cutest monster Toho ever put on film.
I'm partial to Baby Godzilla from the 90's

I wholeheartedly agree!☺☺☺

My AP Lit class loved your comment.
1:58 that kick was BRUTAL :D
I love the idea of a giant human wrestling with a dinosaur.
I love how at the 1:07 mark Frankenstein nods his head like "sup bro".
Baragon's debut movie is a true classic. Underrated Gem of a movie.
Such and underrated movie a film kaiju fans don’t talk about nearly as much of not at all as they should in my opinion its just be of Ishiro Honda’s finest film
I recently dressed up as Baragon at an anime con. :)
Pics, or it didn't happen!
Or at least a video
1:08 he like: sup dudes
Lol
I watched this movie yesterday and Frankenstein scared the hell out of me
How
The monster? Or the scientist?
@@lugialover2496Probably the monster.
@@RocStarr913 That’d make sense

this movie just happened to be on late night tv the first time I ate magic mushrooms. Cosmic, man, cosmic!
Baragon is so cute 🥺
Baragon made other appearances between and after this film; Destroy All Monsters, Godzilla’s Revenge and GMK: Giant Monsters All-Out Attack. His other starring role Gamera vs Baragon.
That was Barugon not baragon.
When I seen it as a kid back in the 70s it was called Frankenstein conquers the world
yeah that was the official US title, I think "Frankenstein vs Baragon" is the literal translation of the Japanese original title
The full japanese title translates into "Frankenstein vs. Subterranean Monster Baragon"
I know that baragon keeps calling as a Dinosaur but to me it's mostly like a Synapsid than Reptiles.
Frankenstein vs. Baragon
1:56 Third of all, THEY STOLE GODZILLAS SOUND EFFECT FOR HIS ATOMIC BREATH
Joshua Anonuevo 1965 seeing as how it’s the same company that makes Godzilla movies I would say that wouldn’t be stealing.
wut the movie was made by toho how made Godzilla
A wild Baragon appears...
This a has been a recent thought of mine, but maybe creating Sanda wasn't needed.

What sounds like a better direction?
First of all, WHY WAS THE DOGORA SOUNDTRACK(supposed to be played in Shin Godzilla 2016) IS PLAYING?!
Actually the theme is even older than that.
Baragon’s main theme was reused in godzilla vs king ghidorah 1991
At around 1:59, was that an attempted dropkick? xD
Couldn't kick higher than his knee😂😂
Hold it, baragon is king of the underworld, there are rumors that godzilla and kin kong will fight underground.
Could this be a sign of at least an easter egg of baragon?
This movie was badass
Subway Surfers Episode 12: A Giant That Could Never Die
Is this crossover cameo but why Frankenstein doing here ?
Kyojin... Shingeki no Kyojin.
The original idea was that the giant Frankenstein was to fight Godzilla, but that idea was dropped.
What if...
#001: Frankenstein's monster and Baragon were anime girls?
#002: Frankenstein's monster met a pregnant woman?
Looks like a giant lilo and stitch
Was I the only one who wanted Baragon to win?
No i also wanted baragon to win
Wouldn't you have loved to been in on the pitch meeting for this movie?
"Frankenstein vs. Pagos", sounds actually idea
It will not because Pagos it's Bigger than Frankenstein
@@Mognezun71 I know, I just imagine
Nick Adams should be more famous.
Wit cha' ole "The Very First Attack On Titan" lookin' ass boy.
that is so cool video
I didnt know frankenstein has a fighting style same as ultra man
I did not know he was in toho
Looks like Joseph Prince, the prosperity televangelist.
😮😂 now that's cold 😅
I thought baragon was owned by the movie studio that owns the rights to Gamera, this has puzzled me for years
chad caruso that is BARUGON you are thinking of, he is a Gamera monster
@W Gaston I'm really surprised Toho didn't at least try to make Daiei change the name; it's WAY too similar.
Giant Robot would had smashed all of them.
I wish they would make baragon was seen during these attacks baragon king ghidorah does fight suit was damagely heavily from not use other monsters in ultra questions and ultraman he was not replaced by gorgosaurus
Who had this idea?
All in his body must be giant O-O
"He vould have an enormous schwanzstucker!"
He’d be terrifically popular
star wars vs godzilla
In this movie Frankenstein stands 115 feet tall
ahhh it's the the 1960's :O
Espero que salga pronto no puedo esperar ;v
この映画どうにかして観れんのか？

U took some musics from Godzilla vs mothra and Godzilla vs king gidorah and Godzillas old sounds of atomic breath
It's not stealing because they made godzilla too.

Oh dear...
Baragon for monsterverse
Is a very skinny Frankenstein
True fact
Frankenstein is the name of the creator, the monster is nameless
Tell us something we didn't know, Mr Trivia.
@@chrisdavie8163 Tell me why you're replying to a comment that was posted 2 years ago, Mr Davie.
That's Right
What the heck!? Why did baragon lose! He is not only bigger than mr.stein, BUT HE ALSO BREATHS FIRE. FIRE!!!!!!!!!!😡
KingKaiju17 i guess without the monster's win there would be no War Of The Gargantuans...
OoeyGooeyGoodra yeah, but still.
FIREEE!!!!!!
KingKaiju17 poopoo
KingKaiju17 hgh
Wow you hurt Baragon fan. It's just how it is. I like Godzilla the most and I was fine when he was defeated or killed. SO just deal with it and stop raging.
Baragon stand 144 feet tall
how is in weak against such a small guy.. yea he lost to godzilla because godzilla is stronger than him
Plot armor
Frankenstein is quicker.
Second of all, 0:02 BELONGS TO TERROR OF MECHAGODZILLA(1975)
This movie is made from 1965 Idiot
This movie was made by the same creators of terror of mechagodzilla so it isn't call stealing

Great movie but I hated the Frankenstein beast. I hoped that baragon kicked the shit out of him.
Well sadly mr.stein is the one that kicked baragon's ass
