"Godzilla Vs The Sea Monster" (1966)
Plot:
Two friends, a bank robber and a man looking for his lost brother, end up stranded on a pacific island populated by some would be world conquerors and protected by a giant lobster. Unknown to the bad guys, Godzilla is asleep inside of the mountains (how a 400 foot tall fire breathing dinosaur can sneak on to an island, bury himself in a mountain and not be seen by anybody is never explained). The good guys wake Godzilla up to fight the lobster creature and take on the bad guys.
Phantom's Review: One of the most fun of the 1960's Godzilla films. My only complaints about this film is 1) it takes a while for Godzilla to show and 2) whenever Toho studio's put Mothra in a film, they felt they needed to put in a long song and dance number showing the natives worshiping the monster. Outside of those two things, this film is fun with plenty of action (once Godzilla shows) and a decent story. Very enjoyable.
