Bizarre & Awful
30 April 2014
Ishiro Honda directed this incredibly bizarre and perfectly awful film that starts off in WWII, where Dr. Frankenstein(!) has been working with the Japanese, and created a living heart, but it is later taken to Hiroshima where it is irradiated by the H-bomb being dropped. Years later, that heart has somehow grown into a full-sized boy, who then mutates even more into a giant man, who attacks the city, then battles a giant lizard named Baragon, also recently awakened. Preposterous story and poor F/X make this a tacky and laughable effort, that only gets worse as it goes along. No relation to Mary Shelley or Boris Karloff at least!
