As a chaser shot to our last episode about the North Korean Kaiju movie Pulgasari, BLT Team B have heroically taken it upon themselves to review the much unloved North American remake Galgameth!
Hello, Kaiju Lovers! Nate and Jimmy venture across the 38th parallel into North Korea to cover the most infamous kaiju film ever made and recapture its star monster: Pulgasari. Tomi Trembath of the Giant-Sized Violence podcast, who grew up with its strange American remake, The Adventures of Galgameth, joins Nate via video call (for obvious reasons) to discuss this "North Korean Godzilla," which is surrounded by urban legends and even wilder true stories. It's a pseudo-remake of a lost South Korean film and, arguably, the Daimajin trilogy--because it's an '80s movie that looks like a grungy '60s movie. (Thanks, "Dear Leader"!) But it saved the life of its kidnapped director, Shin Sang-ok, and his actress wife, Choi Eun-hee, which is the sibject of our Toku Topic.

We are joined by guest hosts Kevin Derendorf (Maser Patrol) and Justin Mullis to take a deep dive into the infamous North Korean film Pulgasari and its obscure American remake, Galgameth. Pulgasari has one of the strangest production backgrounds of any monster film, with its director Shin Sang-ok being kidnapped and forced to make movies in North Korea by Kim Jong Il. But before we get into that wild story, we also have some background on the original Korean myth of Bulgasari and the history of North Korean film. We cap it all off with a review of the American remake Galgameth, which was written by Shin Sang-ok after his escape from North Korea. Along the way we also discuss the other various versions of the Bulgasari myth that have been on both the big and small screen! Relax and enjoy the conversation!
Until I got ready to watch this movie, I had little idea it existed, and even less of a notion that it was an American remake of Pulgasari! An insane combination, but does it work? Join us to find out!

When you absolutely must rescue your vague kingdom from a usurper with unknown motivations and restore your position as the supreme ruler of the lands, reach for a Galgameth statue and squirt some tears on it. Just make sure you don't ever go near an ocean. It's the Adventure or Legend or just Galgameth and he's one family friendly Kaijū! There's some pretty great stuff in this one though for bad movie lovers. There is some possible moral tale about cats being evil and dogs being good, some seriously cheesy special effects, a poorly shot dummy that clearly gets crushed by Galgameth, some awful swordplay, some pretty crummy costumes, and pretty dumb dialogue. It's very easy to riff and great to discuss the stupid parts. We all enjoyed Galgameth and recommend it but its not for everyone by any means. Enter at your own risk.
It may be called Galgameth or it might be called The Adventures of Galgameth or it might be called The Legend of Galgameth; who's to say? Either way, it's the start of our "Monster Bud" 3 episode series. It involves a fantasy tale about a boy who gets a dragon who grows by eating metal. So we'll see how that works out. Sorry about the awful audio quality. Our new mixer is total crap.
