Title: A rarity for Kaiju people...
Review: Not an easy title to find, I bought it more to compleate my collection than to actually watch it. The first Korean Kaiju, it's quickly established that this was made to cash in on Toho's success with only a tiny fraction of the budget. While amusing at times, the cheap production often gets in the way of doing something that rarely adds much to a movie's cost - good writing. It's just not that good.Now the newer version, also known ( and shown on Sci-Fi Channel) as "Reptillian" is a much better film - dispite some of the worse gajin actors since the international version of "Gamera the Invinceble". With it's own glitches being much more entertaining than the original, this is a remake that delivers and is worth getting.Kaiju people have their own way of rating films and are usually very forgiving of compromised production values, the original "Yongary" just isn't that good.
