Forget this DVD, get the Orion VHS!,
By A Customer
This review is from: Yongary: Monster from the Deep (B&W) (DVD)
There really isn't much to say about the film. If you don't know it already and like it you probably won't buy it anyway, because it's just an obscure Korean monster flick. But if you want it, here's my advice: Try to get one of the old Orion tapes and just forget about this DVD. Though my DVD-player says it's encoded at sufficently high bit rates, the image sometimes looks as blocky and noisy as a VCD. I thought I could upgrade from VHS to DVD, but surely not with Alpha's horrible release.

One of the worst,
By A Customer
This review is from: Yongary: Monster from the Deep (B&W) (DVD)
The Korean attempt to create their version of the "guy in a rubber suit" genre of monster movies is probably the worst of it's kind.The monster moves as if there's a narcoleptic actor inside it. It's probably three levels below the weekly Ultraman shows that was available in Japan during the same time period. On top of that, there's an ugly and dislikable kid (much like the "Kenny" of the Gamera movies of the same time period) which pretty much makes it unbearable to anyone over the age of 8. This movie should have killed the Korean monster movie industry (and almost did). The newer version of the 90's is a much better bet, but not by much.

Beware Godzi.. I Mean Gam... Um, Yongary!,
By Bindy Sue Frønkünschtein "bigfootsalienbaby" (under the rubble) - See all my reviews
This review is from: Yongary: Monster from the Deep (B&W) (DVD)
This korean Godzilla / Gamera clone has it's moments. Awakened by nuclear tests, Yongary tunnels along like a moving earthquake, heading straight for Korea! Of course, once he emerges, it's obvious that we've got another full grown adult in a rubber lizard-suit on our hands. Yongary is a bit different in that he breathes fire from his mouth AND shoots a laserbeam from the horn on his snout. There's the usual mass property damage and useless military response before the eggheads come up with something to slay the big lug. Yongary isn't altogether terrible. My 8yo loved every second. Kids'll go bananas for it...
