1964 - DOGORA or Dogora the Space Monster

A typical Japanese monster movie from the old monster movie director himself Ishiro Honda.


Dogora as the monster is called for some reason eats diamonds and coal.  Into this mix is a subplot about a gang of diamond thieves who needlessly complicate the standard monster movie plot.\


This is a quick enjoyable monster movie that Ishiro Honda could knock out in his sleep and he probably did.


The dubbing as usual in these movies is half the fun.

83 minutes, written by Toho's go to monster screenwriter Shinichi Sekizawa.
