MOMSTROUS

Happy Mother's Day this Sunday to all Moms!

The monster world is full of devoted mothers, from Gorgo's Mom to the shark mom in Jaws 3-D. But this year...

Monster-of-the-Week: ...let's give the nod to the mother of Gappa...



...from the 1967 Japanese kaiju flick known in the U.S. as Gappa the Triphibian Monster or sometimes as Monster from a Prehistoric Planet, who (along with the dad) comes looking for her offspring when he's abducted from his island home by reckless humans and taken back to Japan.

Mess with a mother's kid, and you could be up against "terrible destructive powers" that are "even mightier than King Kong."
