Yeah, I remember seeing it as a kid.

I saw it at the drive-in, I miss the drive in's

the best things about this movie are that the actors real eyes show through the monster masks and make up which gives them a look of realism that the other japanese monsters didnt have,the miniature sets are built to scale and really well detailed and the incredibly ominous and gloomy music by akira ifukube...this film is a sequel to my second favorite japanese monster movie,frankenstein conquers the world,athough the story line between the two is mostly hard to make out,my third favorite is mothra...

Thank you for bringing back a wonderful memory long forgotten from my childhood. I loved that movie, my best friend and I had to have watched it at least a 1000 times when we were growing up.

really good japanese monster movies from the "golden era"...mothra, rodan, the mysterians, godzilla {the original version}, king kong vs godzilla, king kong escapes, monster from a prehistoric planet, ghidrah the three headed monster, frankenstein conquers the world,...but "war of the gargantuas" stands alone

you can add "son of godzilla" to the list....its pretty weird and a good japanese monster movie

And one of the first kaiju movies to show humans getting munched for dinner LOL

I love that movie and almost everyone like it, like you couldn't tell

the green gargantua has actually given me nightmares...the only other movie character that has done this is margaret hamiltons incredible performance as the wicked witch in the wizard of oz...

Yes, I love this film, as well as it's prequel Frankenstein Conquers the World.
These films are called Kailju films, giant monster. Japan was the king. I personally do not like CGI. Sure, some is well done, but I prefer the pre-CGI era. I love the Godzilla films too(except the American one).

If you really wanna see some great films that are really well done, see the Daimajin trilogy.

.

Pieces of Frankenstein's cells mutate into two giant humanoid monsters: Sanda (the Brown Gargantua) and Gaira (the Green Gargantua). The former is a benevolent and peace-loving creature, the latter is murderous and savage.

thanx for your comment ,i feel the same way you do and i own all three daimajin films!......the music of akira ifukube used in quite a few japanese monster movies, including war of the gargantuas, is hauntingly ominous and awesome!

The wicked witch from the wizard of oz-1939 and the giant green and brown monsters from war of the gargantuas-1966 are the only movies that i have ever had nightmares about...

The wicked witch was flying on her broom about ten feet off the ground right behind me chasing me as i ran through the woods...

The giant green monster had dug a large hole into the sand next to the ocean that he made into a pond filled with ocean water and he kept humans inside it and he would every so often suddenly appear growling and screaming and reach down into it and grab someone up out with his hand and eat them...
