Japanese director Ishirō Honda is best known for a little movie he made in 1954: Godzilla. But he also made lots more movies for the home of Big G, Toho Studios. Three of them have recently been released on Blu-ray, in the Masters Of Cinema range.
1961's Mothra introduces the giant moth who would go to rival Godzilla in popularity (and cause almost as city-wrecking destruction by flapping his giant wings). The H-Man (1958) is a noir-tinged effort, whose titular bogeyman is a slimy horror that can ooze under doors. Finally, 1959's Battle in Outer Space sees flying saucers from the planet Natal wreaking devastation with their anti-grav rays.
