Godzilla (1954)
Oct 20, 2023•2 hr 8 min
Episode description
Our kaiju journey begins, of course, with the very first—Ishirō Honda's influential classic, a harrowing horror film unlike any Godzilla movie that comes after. We dig into the historical context and the filmmakers' own experiences with war, the suit design and innovative effects that still hold up to this day, Akira Ifukube's legendary score, and the human characters who bring it all together.
