... you know, one of the things I genuinely love about this is that the adults immediately recognize the alien race's name and take the threat seriously right from the start. SO MANY Japanese kids movies of this era have the kids spending half the movie trying to convince the adult that there is a threat in the first place. (I'm thinking in particular of the Gamera movie whose name I can't remember where two kids are kidnapped by the villainous aliens, and their sister spends the whole movie desperately trying to explain to their mother what happened, but she refuses to believe her and keeps punishing her for "lying")

OMG the Japanese did these badly dubbed films so well, it’s what gave these films their charm. Along with the cartoons such as Astroboy, Prince Planet etc and live action such as Shintaro the samurai and Phanthom Agents the 50s and 60s were the peak. And who can forget Sharman.

I go back and watch these dubs from the 1960s and I frankly think they're BETTER than the dubs done in the 1970s, 1980s, 1990s, and even most of the dubs from the last 10 years! Even the Ultraman dub from 1966 isn't bad compared to what they do today. I had some issues with the dub of Shin Ultraman which I didn't think was a bad film. There's casting choices and performances I have issues with in that movie -- IN ENGLISH. It's fine when you watch it in the original Japanese with subs.

Not sure where you got the date of 1959 for this movie, but the opening credits say clearly it was from 1964

@maclen1210 3 жыл бұрын

This is a version of two theatrical films combined and made for US release based on the television show, with all online references, including IMDB and Wikipedia, that state it was released in 1959. All references state that the original tv show was from the previous year of 1958. My guess is that the title page for this version was made for the US release and a mistake was made with the date. Just as there are some inconsistencies with the english dubbing.

@maclen1210 3 жыл бұрын

Just found a site that explains that the Walter Manley Enterprises Inc. acquired the international rights to this and other japanese shows in the 60's. That may be the year it was released in the US, although Wiki states it was released in the US in 1962. So technically that may the case for when this film was released in the US.
