As a Godzilla fan from Germany, I would like to say, that I've always been more than confused with those "Frankenstein's King Kong vs Dracula's Godzilla from Devil's Hell"-kinda titles. When I was a kid, I tried to find the right order to watch the movies but I totally failed.

The reason why a lot of Kaiju films were given "Frankenstein" in their German title was because Frankenstein Conquers the World was very successful during its release in Germany; a lot of studios wanted to capitalize on that by somehow incorporating the Frankenstein character into the future films.

even today some movies get new english titles in Germany, if the movie studio thinks that the the english words of the original one are not familiar enough for the german audience. they might not be so misleading as those Frankenstein examples but it's still confusing when you're learning that it's not the original title.

It doesn't really have much to do with "Frankenstein Conquers the World." What it does have to do with is the Germans consider Frankenstein "the father of monsters." Couple that with the fact Godzilla was not especially popular in Germany and you got them retitling the movies to cater to their audience. The Germans also altered plot details in the dubbing to justify the Frankenstein name. In "Destroy All Monsters", the Kilaaks are supposedly working for Frankenstein. In "Godzilla vs. Hedorah", Hedorah was created by mysterious chemicals Dr. Frankenstein poured down a drain.

Guter Einwurf. Ich hab mir da als Kind nichts weiter bei gedacht. Verwirrend wurde es erst, als dann auch noch "Die Rückkehr des King Kong" auf meinem Radar auftauchte. Der Film ist in den Achtzigern glaub ich gar nicht auf VHS erschienen und lief erst in den Neunzigern wieder im TV. Meine ersten Godzilla-Filme hatte ich übrigens - kopiert aus der Videothek - auf Beta Max. Bewahre die Kassetten noch heute auf. :D

Some more German Toho movie titles, translated to English Frankenstein - The Horror with the Apeface (Frankenstein Conquers the World) Frankenstein - Duel of the Giants (War of the Gargantuas) Godzilla - Frankenstein's Dragon from the Jungle (Gamera vs. Barugon...yes, Barugon is renamed to Godzilla in the German dub. Whereas Gamera becomes Barugon. It's pure insanity.) Guila - Frankenstein's Devil Egg (The X from Outer Space) U-2000 - Dive of Terror (Atragon) U-4000 - Panic under the Ocean (Latitude Zero) Command from the Dark (Godzilla vs. Monster X. The title was derived from a German sci-fi novel by author Hans Dominik.The German opening credits even suggest that the film was based on the novel, which is completely untrue.) Ufos Destroy the Earth (Gorath....which is hilarious, because there is not a single UFO in this one. It's about a rogue planet on a collision course with Earth and humanity's efforts to avoid annihilation. On top of that, the German theatrical cut even completely removed Magma, the movie's kaiju from the film. Thankfully, there is an uncut DVD.) And the best thing about the German version of Terror of Mechagodzilla? The actual dub script doesn't even use the names Konga and King Kong for the Titanosaur and Mechagodzila, respectively. They're called by their original names....which is sort of problematic, since Mechagodzilla had been called "King Kong" in the earlier movie. @_@

The guy who played as Dr. Who in "King Kong Escapes" was like an iconic "household name" actor to most Tokusatsu fans due to his frequent involvement in a lot of sci-fi in Japan up until his death in 2003. You may see him both in most of the Godzilla trilogies, Kamen Rider (as the titular villain Dr. Shinigami), and some other less mainstream superhero TV series.

James would love it. And yes Germany's movie translations in the 50's to 70's were outrageous and hilarious. Spaghetti Westerns and Horror movies had incredible stupid titles, as did the bud spencer and terrence hill movies that were insanely popular in Germany. Germany was a funny place when it comes to movies, hardcore censoring, stupid titles, weird release schedules, the weirdest movies became german cult favorites.

Haven't watched in order, this is the fourth video in your Kongathon series I have watched. I have enjoyed them all but in this review when you bring up not only the Frankenstein info but the Mary Shelley history... very fun! Nice touch! The original King Kong is my favorite film and was addicted to anything Kong since. Great reviews and info on all the Kong films. You do great research! With these two films. King Kong Escapes is my favorite. The story being as hokey but not played for laughs (as in KKvG) is the cherry on top. Kong looks better. The miniature buildings and landscapes are far better. None the less, they are all fun films. Thank for the reviews.

Oh my gawd! The crest wood Godzilla book. I literally haven’t seen that since my 2nd grade year back in 96-97! I would go to the school library and just check it out whenever it was in. Oh nostalgia feels hit in the gut. Thank you..

In spain they renamed Godzilla vs Megalon to "Gorgo y Superman se citan en Tokyo" which roughly translates to Gorgo and Superman meet up in Tokyo. Apparently the Spanish dub refers to Jet Jaguar as Superman.

I am from Germany and it is awesome to hear so much about our german naming of the titles. I remember that as a kid I was confused by some of the old titles. I saw that Cinnemassacre appears to have some german followers. Does anybody now if they fixed the naming issues for the german DVDs/Blu Rays or do they still use the old titles?

Renaming Japanese monster movies is still a thing here in Germany. Until 2012 we never saw a release of the Daimajin trilogy and for old time's sake they renamed them. 1. (orig.) Daimajin - (Ger) Daimajin - Frankensteins Monster erwacht - (translation) Daimajin - Frankenstein's Monster awakes 2. (orig.) Daimajin ikaru - (Ger) Daimajin - Frankensteins Monster kehrt zurück - (translation) Daimajin - Frankenstein's Monster returns 3. (orig.) Daimajin gyakushû - (Ger) Daimajin - Frankensteins Monster nimmt Rache - (translation) Daimajin - Frankenstein's Monster takes revenge
