Godzilla which is actually a mistaken transliteration of Gojira (ゴジラ)
The name comes from the Japanese words: gorira (ゴリラ, "gorilla"), and kujira (鯨 クジラ, "whale"),
That would be Godzilla (1954) and Gamera (1955) .

Japanese Monster films such as Godzilla, Mothra, etc are occasionally aired on the Residual channels. ( those that run mainly reruns and such things as here, indeed are Dinosaurs, Baseball Games). Like channels 9 and ll.
