Movies Not Of This Earth: Dogzilla, King Of The Monsters (Katsuko Films, 1954)
On, Earth 43, where anthropomorphic dogs & cats are the dominant species, Dogzilla, King Of The Monsters, was the very first kaiju (giant monster) film ever made in Katan and the Katanese people loved it. Playing up the atomic bomb fears that were so fresh in Katanese minds, the enormous 300 foot tall Dogzilla breathed atomic fire and left ruin wherever he went. The film has, so far, spawned 27 sequels and imitators too numerous to count.
The film was released worldwide in 1956 with dubbed voices and inserted scenes of Raymond Purr as an American reporter. It was a major hit, especially in the Catskills, Catalonia, Katmandu and Catalina.
The movie and all the sequels are available on DVD and Blu-ray from Volga.com
