HAPPY 50th ANNIVERSARY GODZILLA vs GIGAN!
Godzilla and his horny pal Anguirus battle King Ghidorah and his cyborg bud Gigan!
50 years ago, today Toho Studios released Godzilla vs Gigan, the twelfth flick in the series at the time. It had alien cockroaches attacking earth using the space monsters King Ghidorah and Gigan to lead the charge. Godzilla and former foe Anguirus take on the invaders to save the world! It’s not the best of the series but is a lot of fun and Gigan has become a cult favorite character. I actually saw it in a theater as a kid when Cinema Shares released it five years later as Godzilla on Monster Island.

One of my favorite films of the series! My 4 favorite guys in one film.
Gigan is my personal overall favorite beasties, and Anguirus is my Wife’s.
But I must admit I am wearing my King Ghidorah T-shirt today in honor of our windy ‘cyclone bomb’ weather, which must be a sign of his coming.
