Episode 16: Godzilla vs. Hedorah (1971) (Pollution in Japan, the Two Nixon Shocks)

It’s 70s Month at Kaijuvision Radio, and we begin with the most counter-culture entry in the franchise. We have a smog-based monster that kills hippies (and quite a few others)! Listen as Brian and Nate analyze and appreciate this fascinating and experimental film. Only Godzilla can “Save the Earth”. Our related topics are pollution in Japan and the Two Nixon Shocks.
