Mysterious Library #25 Godzilla Evolution

Your hosts Dr. Dean Bertram and Jason McLean grab some fictional goodies from the audio-visual wing of the Mysterious Library. In this episode, they're looking at GODZILLA films, starting with the original Toho studios classic, directed by Ishirō Honda; up to Toho's re-boot in 2016: SHIN GODZILLA. Much like the flying saucer films - that invaded American cinema screens around the same time that GODZILLA first stomped and smashed his way to cinematic dominance in Japan - these films reflect powerful cultural currents of the time. Join your Mysterious Librarians as they discuss the origins and evolution of Godzilla!
