A classic Japanese horror film about a village that lies near an ancient and restless spirit known as "Majin of the Mountain", DAIMAJIN is interesting variation on the giant monster concept that was literally taking over Japan in the 1960s. When a nefarious scofflaw murders the village leader in order to take his place, he becomes the object of Daimajin's wrath when the spirit is called upon by the slain leader's son. Majin, however, takes the form of a giant stone monster and doesn't seem to be too concerned with the plights of the humans that have called him out of his mountain, and soon begins demolishing the entire village. One of the many classic giant monster films that Japan produced during the '60s, the film was followed by two sequels.
