Frankenstein Conquers the World
A fearsome kaijin? A mad new antagonistic kaiju? A golden entertainment epic of Japan-U.S. collaboration!
Directed by Ishirō Honda
Produced by TOHO, Henry G. Saperstein Enterprises Inc.
A pulpy kaiju spectacle that grafts Gothic horror onto atomic-age anxieties, blending monster-movie thrills with the shadow of Hiroshima.
During WWII, Germans obtain the immortal heart of Frankenstein's monster and transport it to Japan to prevent it being seized by the Allies. Kept in a Hiroshima laboratory, it is seeming lost when the United States destroys the city with the atomic bomb. Years later a wild boy is discovered wandering the streets of the city alone, born of the immortal heart.
