Gorath (1962)

<p>What would you do if a rogue star was about to collide with Earth? Oh, and also there&#39;s a giant walrus for some reason! We&#39;re tackling Ishirō Honda&#39;s lesser-seen high concept sci-fi film about the far future of 1980 and a kind world overcoming borders and politics to literally move the planet. But can a disaster movie work without any interpersonal or human conflict? We talk about the strange dullness of this film, random amnesia, Honda&#39;s commitment to authentic science, and of course the top-notch Tsubaraya effects.</p><p><a href="https://www.glitterjaw.com/glitterjaw-presents" target="_blank" rel="ugc noopener noreferrer"><strong>Check out Glitterjaw&#39;s new variety feed, </strong><em><strong>Glitterjaw Presents</strong></em><strong>!</strong></a></p><p>Part of<a href="http://glitterjaw.com/" target="_blank" rel="ugc noopener noreferrer">⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠ ⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠<strong>The Glitterjaw Queer Podcast Collective</strong>⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠</a></p><p><a href="https://www.glitterjaw.com/skreeonk" target="_blank" rel="ugc noopener noreferrer">⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠<strong>Cover Art Gallery</strong>⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠</a> | <a href="https://www.patreon.com/wallopingwebsnappers" target="_blank" rel="ugc noopener noreferrer">⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠</a><a href="https://www.patreon.com/wallopingwebsnappers" target="_blank" rel="ugc noopener noreferrer">⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠<strong>Patreon</strong>⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠</a><strong> | </strong><a href="https://discord.gg/8BjQm58phH" target="_blank" rel="ugc noopener noreferrer">⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠<strong>Discord</strong>⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠</a></p><p><strong>Email: </strong><a href="mailto:skreeonkpodcast@gmail.com" target="_blank" rel="ugc noopener noreferrer">⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠skreeonkpodcast@gmail.com⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠</a></p><p><strong>Theme song:</strong><a href="https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=dy6YoiQ3TvE" target="_blank" rel="ugc noopener noreferrer">⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠ ⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠&quot;BIO WARS - Synth Cover&quot; by Kweer Kaiju⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠</a></p><p><strong>Glitterjaw Presents trailer song</strong>: <a href="https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=iKvooN2uD9Q" target="_blank" rel="ugc noopener noreferrer">“Happiest Days”</a> by Three Chain Links.
