31 Days of Horror 2013: Day 13 Godzilla: King of the Monsters! (1956)

Day 13 was the giant monster movie classic Godzilla: King of the Monsters!

My Review:

Godzilla: King of the Monsters! was a pretty good movie, with the only real issues being with added in American footage. For the most part the story is done fairly well with the only issues withe most of the American footage looking like it obviously was re-edited into the movie like it was always part of the movie and most of these scenes seem so stupid and laughable of how they add in characters from the original characters into the American footage by having stand ins that only look like the characters from behind and never showing the front of their faces and the cut away shots to show Raymond Burr's reactions to what's happening in the Japanese footage is also laughable stupid. The sets and effects are done very well including the monster scenes. The dubbing for the most part is done fairly well with only one or two done badly. This is a good movie that's really only held back by the added in American footage. I would recommend this movie really anyone who seems interested in watching it and to anyone likes to see bad localizations of foreign movies done for the American market.
