The Big Book of Japanese Giant Monster Movies Vol. 1:

The Big Book of Japanese Giant Monster Movies Vol. 1: 1954-1982: Revised and Expanded 2nd Edition (Big Book of Japanese Giant Monsters)

Whatâ€™s this you ask, another crudely fan produced book of reviews and boring synopses of Tohoâ€™s Godzilla films? Not quite, if youâ€™re a seasoned Godzilla fan like the author eager for new information on old classics, this is in fact the book for you. Not only does it cover Tohoâ€™s dai kaiju eiga (even the rarely seen Daigoro vs. Goliath), but for the first time in America offers reviews, trivia and detailed production information on all of Daieiâ€™s classic Gamera films, Toeiâ€™s Legend of Dinosaurs and Monster Birds, and even the Shaw Brotherâ€™s Mighty Peking Man to name a few. Still think you already know it all about Japanese giant monster films? Did you know that King Seesar originally had antlers and was named King Barugan? Or that Tadao Takashima refused to fly to Guam for on location filming for Son of Godzilla? Or that Katsumi Nimiamoto, who played Titanosaurus in Terror of Mechagodzilla was also the acrobatic hero of Ultraman Leo on TV? Donâ€™t know who Tadao Takashima or Katsumi Nimiamoto are, donâ€™t worry this book will tell you that too. If you think youâ€™ve already read every good book on Japanese Giant Monsters think again.

Wait thereâ€™s more!!!! This book also offer bonus entries on non-kaiju films like Battle in Outer Space, Tohoâ€™s Hammer horror inspired â€œBloodthirsty Trilogyâ€ and Agon the Atomic Dragon to name only a few. Plus, this Revised and Expanded Edition covers over 25 new films including Warning from Space (1956), The Birth of Japan (1959), The Whale God (1962), Voyage Into Space (1970), Submersion of Japan (1973), Jumborg Ace and Giant (1974), and Attack of the Super Monsters (1982) to name only a few!
