Check Out Cinemassacre's Godzillathon


As I already established in an earlier post, I'm a pretty big fan of The Angry Video Game Nerd (real name James Rolfe). For those who aren't aware, he not only creates the AVGN videos but also creates his own independent films (mostly horror related) and posts them on his production company website Cinemassacre. Aside from creating these films, Rolfe also does movie reviews and various countdown lists.


That's where the Godzilla Monster Madness (aka Godzillathon) comes in. In October of last year, Rolfe did a Cinemassacre Monster Madness countdown that covered the history of the horror film, reviewing films ranging from The Cabinet of Dr. Caligari to Halloween to From Dusk till Dawn. You can watch last year's Monster Madness Countdown on the Cinemassacre YouTube page here. I'd strongly recommend it.

Keeping in the tradition of last year, Rolfe is doing yet another Monster Madness countdown for the Halloween season, only this time focusing on and covering ever Godzilla film ever made. This is great because I absolutely love Godzilla (and you should to). Unlike most reviews of films you'll see people do on YouTube, Rolfe actually includes footage from the films in his reviews and tends to make each review entertaining with his natural charisma and very informative. If you're a fan of Godzilla or monster films in general, I'd recommend you check it out (and if you have the time, check out his countdown from last year as well). I've posted the first two videos in the series below. There should be a new video posted about every day on the Cinemassacre YouTube page (and it's webpage as well) from now until Halloween.





Be sure to check these out until Halloween. Also, check out Rofle's Angry Video Game Nerd videos as well if you haven't done that as well. They're foul-mouthed as you can get but they are also genuinely funny.
