Frankenstein Conquers the World (1965)

• Add

The film's story originated from an unused 1962 screenplay entitled King Kong versus Frankenstein, written by King Kong (1933) special effects technician Willis H. O'Brien. In the story, Dr. Frankenstein's grandson was to have created a 20 ft tall monster from the remains of animals and the monster would end up fighting Kong. The story never got past the screenplay, thought concept art depicting Kong and the Frankenstein monster exist. The screenplay was given to John Beck who in turn sold it to Toho who made Kingu Kongu tai Gojira (1962) and Frankenstein Conquers the World (1965). Willis O'Brien was never paid for his contribution.
