About Kaiju Unleashed: An Illustrated Guide To The World
Celebrate the world of movie monsters and beasts with Kaiju Unleashed, a complete reference guide to strange creatures in film and how they came to be. Kaiju (Japanese for “strange creature”) is a film genre that emerged in Japan in the early ’50s. The movies center on giant monsters battling humans, machines, or other beasts.

This comprehensive guide features: A thorough discussion of monster movies (Gamera; Rodan; Destroy All Monsters) Insight into how kaiju has impacted international films (Ant Man; 50-Foot Woman; Jurassic Park) Stunning movie posters and film stills, plus fan-made tributes to some of the kaiju classics (Godzilla; King Kong; Mothra; Pacific Rim) And more! If you are a kaiju fan or are interested in kaiju’s cultural influence worldwide, this display-worthy volume provides the perfect general introduction to the genre, reference to its film highlights, and celebration of its practitioners, trends, and stories.
