It's not really underrated in my opinion. You almost never see the monster and he's just a long-neck. Right off the bat they decided to make it invisible 100% to save on the budget.
I have been looking into giant monster movies lately. I have Space Monster Wangmagwi, Monster Seafood Wars, and Whale God coming soon. I also have a long list of movies I need to watch.
How is The Valley of Gwangi? I hear good things about it.
>Same director as The Beast from 20,000 Fathoms
You just sold me on Gorgo, will have to check it out now. Beast from 20k is one of my favorite monster movies.

Oh yeah I think you'll like it. It is currently my favorite Gamera movie. It always makes me teary eyed at the end. I need to rewatch Irys though because its been a very long time, but for now Brave is my favorite.
Also thank you for posting all your ratings. I have fairly similar ratings to yours from the ones I have watched.
Sweet! I am curious for your rating of King King Escapes, and also what you didn't like of Godzilla vs King Kong. I thought both were pretty good movies, and found Escapes especially fun. I haven't seen those movies in years so maybe upon a rewatch my opinions will change. King Kong Escapes I think had both fun human and monster plots. It reminded me a lot of Godzilla vs MechaGodzilla (1974).

Yeah
no

Sure
Yes it is very good.
The Japanese rip off of it Gappa was also decent.
Yep. Genuinely great movie.
Same director as The Beast from 20,000 Fathoms & The Giant Behemoth. Based mother fucker.
Behemoth is extremely underrated.
