Other 60s Japanese monster films (not Godzilla)?


Does anyone know the names of other 60s Japanese monster films (other than Godzilla) similar to Mothra? I'd like to check them out too!

There's "Matango: Attack of the Mushroom People," which is an excellent Toho film from the 60s. Also, there's "King Kong Escapes," which is always a fun one to watch.

Yes, Matango is a very good movie. You can check ouut other movies by Honda Ishiro as he was a specialist on monster movies. Ther is a movie called Battle of the Gargantuas (or something like that in English) which is good and funny.

Check out the Ultraman franchise. There's a ton of shows and movies to pick from, and it's a fantastic series.

If you're just wanting 60s, there's Ultra Q, Ultraman, and Ultra Seven, all of which are excellent shows.
