I'm not even sure I saw this when I was a child. This must be the pinnacle of cheesy Japanese monster movies.
I don't know if I'd let kids watch this, even though I saw it when I was 6 or 7 years old, I don't know if I'd let a kid that young watch it. Still, if you want to watch a cheap kaiju knockoff with shock violence, it's worth hunting down a copy. It's also fairly unoriginal, as it's merely one of many Godzilla knockoffs, made cheaply to make a quick buck. Basically, this is probably one of the most violent kaijus ever made, and even though I'm not easily shocked, I watched that ancient tape again the other day, and was surprised how violent this movie is, and how graphic the violence is. I think he regretted it for some time afterwards, b/c my mom was not happy. I saw this back in the late 80s on the USA Network (when it was still in its weird, still-trying-to-find-an-identity-among-all-the-other-basic-cable-channels days) on an edition of the sorely missed "Commander USA's Groovy Movies." My dad taped this movie from that show (like he did with many Godzilla and Gamera movies on that ancient, crappy VCR we had in the 80s).
