Japanese Monster Film #1: Yongary, Monster of the Deep Review - 1967

Film #1:  Yongary, Monster of the Deep Review - 1967
Rated: Parental Guidance      
WATCH THIS FILM                                    


South Korea attempted to take advantage of the Japanese monster hype with the 1967 film “Yongary, Monster from the Deep”.   Earthquakes rock South Korea but the source of the shockwaves is unknown.  All too soon do the people discover that they were caused by the awakening of the horrid monster Yongary!  Before the people of South Korea know it, the monster is in their city and drinking their oil.  Can the military and a local youth stop this horrible beast? 

Although the film has cheesy effects and a monster suit that can be best described as hilarious, Yongary is a decent film for the time in which is was made.   This was obviously meant to be South Korea’s answer to Godzilla.  However, this monster’s suit makes the original Godzilla suit look amazing.  This is an interesting film with a fun plot and much camp appeal.  Check it out today!
