Ep. 191: "The Return of Godzilla (aka 1985)” with Eva & ThePoeticCritic
The King of Monsters demands his spot in spooky month. ThePoeticCritic returns to Ninety For Chill to discuss what is truly scary about kaiju. International politics and Western adaptations.
CatBusRuss gets to learn the history of "The Return of Godzilla", a legacy sequel/reboot of the Toho franchise. The two discuss whether or not the giant monsters are only scary to kids, the under appreciated influence the big guy had on America filmmaking, the necessity of practical effects, and where the hell the money that Yankee producers are throwing at movies is going.
