Multicolored spacemen invade Earth, and they want land and ladies! Josh from the Biorante toksatsu subtitle database joins us for Ishirō Honda's first epic space movie, with an all-star cast and loads of effects innovations! We talk about this film's parallels to Japan's entrance into the United Nations, how it tackles fighting aliens without using nuclear weapons, and of course, the giant robot mole bug Moguera.
