<p/><br></br><p><b> About the Book </b></p></br></br>Special effects films from Japan are about as inventive as they come. But wait until you read about the ones they didn't make such as FRANKENSTEIN VS. THE HUMAN VAPOR, INVISIBLE MAN VS. THE HUMAN TORCH, and AFTER JAPAN SINKS. Also covered are rare films that never made their way to America, like FEARFUL ATTACK OF THE FLYING SAUCERS (1956).<p/><br></br><p><b> Book Synopsis </b></p></br></br><p>Think <em>The Big Book of Japanese Giant Monster Movies: The Lost Films</em> turned over every stone and revealed every surprise known to man? Think again. In the great tradition of the inevitable sequel delve into yet more unproduced scripts from the Land of the Rising Sun. Witness the confrontation between Mizuno the Gas Human and the Frankenstein monster in <em>Frankenstein vs. the Human Vapor</em>. Marvel at the Human Torch, which was both an attempt to revive Toho's mutant films and also a stylistic continuation of the Bloodthirsty Trilogy. Thrill to the adventures of the Super Noah in <em>The Flying Battleship</em> which turned into TV's <em>Mighty Jack</em>. Puzzle at an adaptation of Sakyo Komatsu's post-apocalyptic thriller <em>Japanese Apache</em> starring the Crazy Cats. And, finally find out what happens <em>After Japan Sinks</em>!
