Frankenstein Conquers The World
Toho's crazy take on the Frankenstein legend - the monster's heart is shipped from Germany to Japan during WWII. The heart grows into a giant teenage boy who runs amok and encounters the adorable monster Baragon, who has also run amok. Damage caused by the monster is being attributed to the boy, and perhaps vice versa. Ultimately they are embroiled in a fight to the death. With American Nick Adams, and many Japanese/Toho stalwarts. Crazy, man.

It’s like if the producers intended to make a kaiju movie, but the rubber suit got irreparably damaged. Frantic, they decided to strap a loincloth on Hiro and have him tear up model trees and wrestle the undamaged outfit.

Good choice, but we might have to settle for a "just the jokes" audio track, given that it's from Toho.

I'd love if they could do this and all the other Toho Godzilla films, but I don't think they are able as apparently Toho is really protective of their monsters. It is the reason they only did two Godzilla films when MST3K originally ran and literally had to stop selling Godzilla versus Megalon on the one DVD set...it's crazy! If they could I would love this one and Godzilla versus Hedorah, but neither will likely come to pass.
