With almost 10 years of content I have to make sure MONSTERS CONQUER THE WORLD is actually, you know, navigable. The old “Monsters and Articles” dropdown menu on the main page sidebar and footer is fun, but it’s not necessarily the most efficient way to get around! Wouldn’t it be handy to be able to jump straight to the review for Godzilla vs. Hedorah or Galgameth instead of sifting through a million different monsters, media, article types, etc.? Hence, this thing! For now it’s just going to be a big ugly list of films (and TV shows) sorted by series and in order of release, with links to reviews where applicable (click here episodes of the Monsters Conquer the World Podcast).
