A great Korean kaiju movie from 1967. The camera work was average, but the special effect was great of course not up to par of today's effects but for the time it was good. I didn't like the design of the monster much but the way the actor acted in it made it look natural and not cringy like some kaiju movies look. The story was bland though, generic kaiju story. But when they got to destroy the building it felt epic and awesome. It ain't no Godzilla movie, but it's a great one for when you want some kaiju/Godzilla action that isn't Godzilla. The music is good too nothing to write home about though.
