1973, English. Directed by Ron Oliphant & Ishirō Honda.
Descendants of King Kong begin on a warpath
Through an experiment by Dr. Stewart with animal cells, a monster is created that is given the name Frankenstein. He is a gentle giant, but he escapes his guards and was supposedly killed on a mountain. After several years, a ship off the coast is attacked by a green monster, where the people think of Frankenstein. The green monster attacks the fortified country, in which the army is then called in for help. When a brown monster suddenly appears, Dr. Stewart understands that his Frankenstein was not killed, but has reproduced.
