7/10
Better than you might think...
30 January 2014
My rating is 2.5 points higher than the current average, and here's why: The title, premise, and most of the goings-on are a total hoot. The 'creature' is almost hilarious to look at and his antagonist in the picture is like a hungry dog-reptile hybrid. Both are giants and the battle scenes are like a WWE Wrestling match. Nick Adams is a doctor who lends some 'credibility' (tongue-in-cheek) to this unintentionally funny Manga-style monsterfest. If you accept this flick for what it is and just sit back, you could feel as entertained as I was. An ominous musical background score was provided by the late, great Akira Ifukube, of Godzilla movies fame (the better Japanese ones, of course!). Give FCTW a shot. You might just enjoy it, despite yourself.
