Squib Fiesta (Film Fest: The War of the Gargantuas 1966)

When a giant green Frankenstein emerges from the ocean, he starts to take bites out of sailors like so many canapés. But after he makes his way towards mainland Japan, it's up to the crack team at the Frankenstein Institute of Technology to determine just what's going on. Is Russ Tamblyn the real monster? Will the war end with a Godzilla from the machine? Did 60's cinema have a volcano mandate? It’s the episode that always bets on octopus.
