Dana Gould on THE WAR OF THE GARGANTUAS

The War of the Gargantuas was planned asthe sequel to Inshirō Honda's Frankenstein Conquers the World but director Inshirō Honda had problems; he was in a contract dispute with the studio and star Tab Hunter was replaced by a less than cooperative Russ Tamblyn. Nevertheless Honda got his movie made with two of Toho's best stuntmen facing off as Sanda and Gaira, the hairy behemoths who use Tokyo as a wrestling ring. A cult film if ever there was, the movie counts Brad Pitt and Guillermo del Toro among its fans.
