AMERICAN KAIJU: THE AMAZING COLOSSAL MAN VS THE BLACK SCORPION
The 6o ft tall Amazing Colossal Man!
Episode Three of the hottest new cable show in the land airs tonight. Cult director Eddie Wozniak’s American Kaiju series continues its salute to the style of 1950s “big monster” films from America combined with the style of Japanese Kaiju films.
This time around the gigantic scorpion from the movie The Black Scorpion emerges from an erupting volcano in Mexico. As such creatures do it goes on a rampage, killing hundreds and causing millions of dollars in damage in and around Mexico City.
The giant Black Scorpion plays chicken with a train.
The Mexican government begs the American government to send their special giant-sized operative the Colossal Man from his Area 51 home down to help them. Uncle Sam agrees, sending good old Glenn Manning down to battle the huge black scorpion. Continue reading

AMERICAN KAIJU: THE AMAZING COLOSSAL MAN VS THE SPIDER
The Colossal Man will square off against his latest foe …
Episode Two of the hottest new cable show in the land airs tonight. That program is American Kaiju from cult film and television director Eddie Wozniak. The brilliant premise of the show: Wozniak pits “big” creatures from 1950s American schlock films against each other in the style of 1960s and 1970s Japanese Kaiju movies.
… a giant spider whose size, color and opacity vary from scene to scene.
Last week’s premier episode saw Glenn Manning, the 60 ft tall Colossal Man, battling the giant buzzard from outer space featured in the film The Giant Claw. Tonight Manning clashes with the gigantic spider from Earth vs the Spider.
The spider was mutated by radiation (naturally) and is rampaging through Phoenix, AZ when the government summons its special operative the Colossal Man to leave his Area 51 home and save thousands of lives from the atomic arachnid. Continue reading

AMERICAN KAIJU: THE AMAZING COLOSSAL MAN VS THE GIANT CLAW
In this corner … the 6o ft tall Glenn Manning aka The Amazing Colossal Man!
Glitternight Productions strikes again with a very entertaining new cable television series! Cult film and television director Eddie Wozniak has put together a show called American Kaiju. The brilliant premise of the show: Wozniak will be pitting “big” creatures from 1950s American schlock films against each other in the style of 1960s and 1970s Japanese Kaiju movies.
Instead of battles like Godzilla vs Mothra or Gamera vs Barugon, American Kaiju will feature 66 minute episodes like tonight’s The Amazing Colossal Man vs the Giant Claw. The premise the show proceeds from is that Glenn Manning, the 60 feet tall Colossal Man in question, neither died nor became the deformed monster from Attack of the Colossal Beast.
And in this corner … the 30 story tall buzzard from outer space aka The Giant Claw!
Instead Manning was kept alive and well in Area 51 as a specialized operative against the proliferation of gigantic bugs and monsters from outer space that plagued the U.S. in the 1950s. American Kaiju has a lot of fun with how odd the mindset and attitudes of that era seem compared with today without getting overly political.
It’s all good fun as the Colossal Man will battle another brobdignagian beast every week, just like Ultra Man from Japanese television. The special effects are marvelous for the destruction of U.S. cities like Las Vegas, New York, Chicago, San Francisco and others. Continue reading
