167. The Chorus of Kaiju. [MST3K 213. Godzilla vs. the Sea Monster.]


Listen Later

Godzilla vs. the Sea Monster protects Chris and Charlotte from other kaiju while they talk about Odysseus, Antigone, Paladin, Pink Lady, and Jeff.

Show Notes.

Godzilla vs. The Sea Monster / Ebirah, Horror of the Deep (ゴジラ・エビラ・モスラ 南海の大決闘) (Jun Fukuda, 1966): MST3K Wiki. IMDB. Trailer.

Our episodes on Godzilla vs. Megalon, Gamera vs. Jiger, and... you know what, you can look up the rest of the Gamera episodes!

We talked about Godzilla Minus One in a Patreon-exclusive bonus bit.

Also, retired hosts Adam and Beth talked with Chris about the original Godzilla movie — immediately after Beth and Chris’s first time watching it!

We talked about Kurt Vonnegut’s Slaughterhouse-Five during our episode on The Slime People.

Chris misremembered! It’s not Death Island, it’s Devil’s Island.

The kaiju that Charlotte stands up for is apparently a Giant Condor.

The theory that a tragic hero has a flaw, or specifically a hamartia, comes from Aristotle’s Poetics.

Medea (Pier Paolo Pasolini, 1969). (The effect used in the trailer is not used in the movie, but the trailer still reflects the movie’s vibes.)

Euripedes: Medea. (But also check out Hecuba!)

Sophocles: Philoctetes. (That book also has Ajax.)

Sophocles: Antigone. (And the episode of Chris’s other podcast about Antigone.)

(Thirty Greek tragedies survive, all by Sophocles, Euripedes, and Aeschylus. Basically. Some asterisks may apply.)

Hawaiian Eye and Hawaii Five-O.

Sid and Marty Krofft talking about Pink Lady and Jeff.

A later episode of Pink Lady (and Jeff). (Or skip ahead to the Abe Lincoln sketch.)

Pink Lady: Kiss in the Dark.

Have Gun Will Travel theme song.

Odetta: Take This Hammer.

Gene Roddenberry and Have Gun Will Travel.

Richard Boone and his face.

Blatz! (Though a jingle with the "kegs, cans, and bottles" line apparently existed.)
