About this episode
The Blade Licking Thieves review the 1967 South Korean giant monster movie Yongary, Monster from the Deep, discussing its low budget and entertainment value.
The Blade Licking Thieves venture into low budget, B movie territory with a review of South Korea's first giant monster movie: Yongary, Monster from the Deep (1967). An awful film in nearly every way, Yongary sits at the head of the pantheon of "so bad, it's good" Godzilla rip offs, which is to say: it's a terrible amount of fun. Tune in to hear the full review!
