07:20. Don't forget the Ainu (a Japanese minority) were shown in a sympathetic light in the original Gojira. A complete 180 from this film.

The Yeti just wanted to share some snow cones....

What's weird is that parts of this movie is very similar to the Dyatlov Pass Incident that happened in Russia a few years later. The local people were even originally accused for the killings.
EDIT Russian college students were on a cross country hiking trip through the snowy mountains and disappeared and later found dead. No idea what happened, but some people believe they were killed by a Bigfoot-like creature.

That case has been recently solved
New snow simulation provided by Disney's Frozen (Yes, Disney spent so much money on Frozen 2, that their snow moddel was more lifelike and accurate than the ones created at the best universities)

Interesting. Have to look into it.

Another theory I heard was they either witnessed or were exposed to a weapons test by the Soviet Union. That theory makes the most sense to me. Though the hikers getting attacked by a Bigfoot/Yeti makes for more action and horror.

The movie is extremely a downer. The girl goes through countless beatings in the film, and then gets dragged into the sulfur pit. She went through hell in the movie. Who would have thought that being eye candy as a coconut bra dancer on Farou Island would have been a better film role for the actress.
I like the duology of the reviews. Both cuts of the film are so drastically different it is almost insane to be honest. I don't know if this film, or the different cuts of Varan was more hacked up for American audiences. Nice to see a lot of behind the scenes info and outlining for the movie though. Nice video :)

Well I haven't seen you around for a while time

I always get weirded out when people refer to this as a "kaiju" film, cause while it's technically a "strange beast", it's presentation would also make Harry and the Henderson's a kaiju film...
Is a polar bear a kaiju? An angry elephant? Robert Wadlow on bath salts?

If it's from japan and has a monster, it's kaiju media.

If half human was bad then why are you pulling a couple of footage from half human up?
