About this product

Product Information

TOHO PACK includes a triple feature of 1950s and 1960s Japanese sci-fi! In VARAN THE UNBELIEVABLE, a monster from a remote island is not pleased when a group of researchers go trudging around in his backyard looking for butterflies. First he does away with the small island's village and his next stop: Tokyo! In THE MYSTERIANS, a group of seemingly harmless aliens have landed on Earth and have a simple request: some land and, more importantly, some women. When they are told no by the local authorities, it turns into an all out war between Earth and the aliens. And in the strangest film of them all, MATANGO: THE CURSE OF THE MUSHROOM PEOPLE, a group of shipwrecked survivors are about to find out what happens when they eat the mysterious-looking fungus growing on the island where they've crashed. It turns out it transforms them into monsters: horrible, mushroom-covered monsters!

Toho: Godzilla & Mothra aren't all they did that was entertaining
Great movies all three! If you like swiss cheese (i.e. cheesy movies with plot holes) then this is for you! The Mysterians had great effects and a 'creature on a rampage'. Varan I had only seen the American version and this one is FAR superior (plus you get to see Varan *fly* which is cut from the American version). Matango is SUCH a creepy acid-trip with a lot of tension and unanswered questions building up to a big payoff at the end. All three are treated as straight-up drama and if anything is 'camp' it was almost certainly unintentional as they all have serious plots and acting throughout. Not intended to be comedies but more thought-provoking in nature. Out of the 3 Mysterions is probably the closest to cheesy. Varan was Godzilla 'ish'. Matango was intense suspense. Personally I liked all 3 and won't let go of them now that I've watched them...I am pleased to have them as part of the Toho collection I have! NOTE: I watched all 3 in original language with English subtitles as voice-overs are waaaay to idiotic in tone for my liking. I prefer to hear the emotion in the original actors voices even if I have to read what they are saying to understand them.

A Step Away From Godzilla
The Toho 3 pack contains 3 DVDs that don't involve Godzilla, Mothra, Gidorah, or any of the other well known Toho monsters. All 3 DVDs are engaging, and prove Toho can release successful films outside of Godzilla.
