Butt &#8230; sorry, BUT what justifies its inclusion here is the sheer, crazy, ASStonishingly tasteless audacity of making a movie that features a Godzilla-sized atomically mutated rear end attacking and destroying a major city. The concept is too bizarre NOT to be included in our list of Crazy Kaiju. It may not be a very &#8220;sophisticated&#8221; film (<em>see trailer below<\/em>), or even as good as it could have been &#8212; and it may be true that it takes way too long for the giant-monster ass to appear. But it&#8217;s probably the only giant-monster ass movie you&#8217;ll ever see &#8212; and all the references to Godzilla\/Mothra (especially the two singing fairies that provide a musical commentary throughout) stamp it as <em>kaiju<\/em> through and through.
