Love that poster!

GPO: That second poster is for the 20th Anniversary Screening of the film — not an alternate to the original — just to clarify.

Here is some footage from the film. (Very poor quailty).
Long lost footage from this early 80s fan project was finally exhibited at GFest.

Holy crap !
Thats freakin awesome ! This is a fan film ?!?!
Damn, I'd love to see this flick . Do you think TOHO might ever take these fan films under there wing, and release them like Lucas did with the Star Wars fan films ?

I LIKE that wolfman suit as well. Kind of looks like he came from the same litter as King Caesar. His owner must have clipped his ears and put weight vests on him, though.

The fanfilm was made with employees of Toho involved. It was a fanfilm, but the fans were also professionals in the world of film. IMO seeing this was easily a highlight of G-Fest.

I wonder what happened to the original 15 minute film from 1979? If you look at the first page on this thread at August's first post, it has scans of it being screened in 1980 and ran 15 minutes. It featured the 1964 Godzilla, a different looking Wolfman and Baragon.

BTW here is another shot of the Godzilla suit.

The film is mostly finished, but the director still has hopes of finishing the project some day. It hasn't been seen due to Toho not being keen on these things. Same reasons GAMERA 4 has not been seen. The gentleman who had the footage of the film is hoping to have the director at a future G-Fest. The hopes are to have him screen the film as he has it. He is also hoping for the same from the director of GAMERA 4.

Wow! What a find.
The Godzilla suit looks like it was taken from KING KONG VS.GODZILLA.
The Wolfman's transformation was influenced from AN AMERICAN WEREWOLF IN LONDON (1981).
So it is from the early eighties because:
1. I told you about the Wolfman's source of inspiration.
2. It is in celebration of the 20th anniversary of KKVSG.

Here ya go, your welcome! This is the 5 min film.

That was really fun! Obviously patterned on the fight with KING KONG in some ways, and the transformation owes much to THE HOWLING (the face close-ups). In reading the thread I had no idea so many were made. Very impressive!

I would have loved to have been 20 and living in Tokyo or Osaka in the early 80s. So much fan activity.

By the way, the maker of the film has been confirmed as a guest at this year's G-Fest.

^ Is he going to show any more footage?

My Recent Posts · Mar 13 13 4:32 PM

Not sure about that. I just know that JD has posted that he is confirmed.
