Blu-ray release: ‘Kaiju Mono’

By   |  Jul 12, 2018

Sentai Filmworks are bringing the 2016 Japanese action-comedy ‘Kaiju Mono’ (Daikaiju Mono/大怪獣モノ) to US Blu-ray on August 14, 2018.

Directed by Minoru Kawasaki, the film revolves around a disgraced doctor who transforms his assistant into a titan to do battle with an invading monster. The cast includes Kota Ibushi, Syuusuke Saito, Miki Kawanishi, Saki Akai, and Minoru Suzuki.

Synopsis: Things aren’t looking good in Japan. The weather is acting strangely, volcanoes that don’t normally erupt are erupting, and… oh yes… the giant monster Mono is running amuck and gobbling up the human population. What a nuisance! Fortunately, disgraced Doctor Totaro Saigo thinks he has the solution: a special formula that can be injected into a normal human, causing the injectee to grow into a colossus of Tokyo-skyscraper-stomping proportions! With any luck, that means the good doctor’s lab assistant Nitto will be able to take on Mono, hand to claw, in “mano a Mono” combat! Yes, the plan is every bit as insane as it sounds, and the logic of the plot will be stretched as thin as the fabric of Nitto’s ultra-stretchy briefs when the ultimate human vs. monster wrestling match erupts in KAIJU MONO!

‘Kaiju Mono’ is available for pre-order from Amazon.com.
