  • Sorry for the bad spelling of varan please do not read the one under this comment.

  • @doom7ish Don't sweat it man.

  • 3:57 didn't JamesNintendoNerd say exactly the same thing when he reviewed the movie on Cinemassacre?

  • @TheDigitalEclipse Yes he did, good catch :D

  • Technically, this is a review of the 1958 Japanese film "Daikaiju Baran" (The Monster Baran) and not the 1962 US film "Varan the Unbelievable". As mentioned at the end, don't even bother watching "Varan the Unbelievable" unless your curious to see how vastly different it is from the original film (different cast, different plot, Varan doesn't even fly).

    Varanus is the actual genus for monitor lizards including the komodo dragon (varanus komodoensi).

  • @varan619 Thats was the main reason I wanted to watch the americanized version of the film...just to see all the changes. I went with using Varan the Unbelievable at the time because I thought more people would recognize it that way. However in hindsight I probably should have used the Japanese title.

  • I love Varanasi in godzilla unleash.

  • There was an explosion under Varan's crouch, that wasn't suppose to happen. Kind of makes you feel sorry for the suit actors if they can have that kind of accident. The guy wasn't hurt (though how, I'll never know) and went on to do a lot of the godzilla showa films, talk about dedication to a job.

  • The US version doesn't show varan flying

  • @Roehm21 does the tokyo shock dvd come with both the japanese and english dub release of Varan the Unbelievable.

  • its really a shame that an awesome monster like varan didn't get much attention.

  • I think its sad that Varan was supposed to have been Godzilla's ally or foe in a number of Godzilla movies that were never made or which were recast with different monsters...I really think Varan should face Godzilla in a fight someday, he's had so little exposure so he'd be like an all new kaiju to less informed fans & honestly it would be refreshing to see him fight someone different from Mothra or Ghidorah or MechaG etc. Though they may have to explain how he achieves flight, any ideas? lol

  • Varan's growl's appear to be a mixture of Godzilla, Rodan and Baragon.

  • Varan looks realy cool.
