Episode 6: Rodan (1956) (Japan during the Korean War, Japan and the United Nations)

Posted on October 25, 2017 by Kaijuvision Radio

Because Rodan is in numerous Godzilla movies, Brian and Nate discuss his namesake film. While the movie is serious and at times horrific, like the original Gojira (1954), Rodan is a completely different type of kaiju. Our related topics are Japan during the Korean War and Japan’s history with the United Nations.
