Rodan (1956)


































  In the mining village of Kitamatsu, miners are starting to disappear in the vast, cold mines. A survivor tells a story of a giant insect roaming in the mines and soon the village is getting attacked by huge insects! If that was not enough, Rodan (a flying monster) also appears wrecking havoc in the are. Who will survive in the end?
  Rodan's first appearance in the big screen and it definitely is something else! One cannot but be impressed by the imagination of our weird friends, the Japanese. Ishirô Honda directs this film, as many others of the Kaiju genre, and he surely left his mark in the Sci-Fi world. Explosions, science and a weird demonstration of the readiness of the Japanese army (a different Cold War) all rolled up in a juicy sushi!
  In these films, he main protagonist is not a human being. In fact, little is said about the main human characters, only some mellow weddings or soft-core love stories. Instead, emphasis is given to the giant monsters that roam our world. Over the top special effects and sets that make Pacific Rim seem to unbelievable. This is where it all started!
Must watch this : on a hot summer afternoon with a bottle of the most exotic juice you can get your hands on and some shrimp chips! Then, go the sea but have a fear that something is lurking in the waters!
