Focusing on the evolution of kaijū cinema, this book traces its journey from Japanese origins to a worldwide phenomenon. It delves into the global impact of iconic films like Godzilla, examining how cultural elements are appropriated across borders. The narrative highlights the subgenre's development, its exploitative circulation in the West, and the changing dynamics of power in global cinema. Through this lens, the book illustrates how deeply rooted national genres can transform into transnational spectacles, contributing to a broader understanding of film's cultural significance.
