Not the Americanized version but the original where they dealt with the horrors of the nuclear bomb and radiation.

The American version had Raymond Burr as the reporter , they deleted some of the more important and controversial scenes. Minus One was good but it drives my dog nuts.

Godzilla and Gamera, my favorites. I’m always a little disappointed in the American versions. They rely too much on star power and special affects.
