Space Monster Wangmagwi (1967)

Byrd, Matt and Kevin discuss the South Korean obscurity, 1967's Space Monster Wangmagwi!  Made (cheaply) to compete with the same year's Yongary, Wangmagwi has been a rarity up until 2023 when it got its first home video release (in any country!) via SRS Cinema in The United States.  The film was thought lost until the Korean Film Archive started doing rare showings at festivals in the 2000s, which only made giant monster fans even more curious.  The film tells of a space monster sent to destroy the population to make room for its alien overlords to populate the earth.  Along the way we have interrupted weddings, someone falling in their own poop, and a homeless child getting stuck inside the monsters head in one of the most stream of consciousness monster movies we've ever seen.  We expected weird, but nothing could have prepared us for the madness that is Wangmagwi.  So how does the film hold up to the hype it has built in its decades in hiding?  Listen and find out!
