UPDATE 10/6/2013 - Mike Keller has come forward as the artist of the two monster pics in question. Here's his explanation in detail (in case you don't read it in the comments below):
"The context behind each image is not becoming as viral as the images themselves, so allow me to explain: The first image is what I remembered two weeks ago of the insect creatures. All I had was my memory to rely on, which is as flawed as anyone's. This was almost two months ago that I saw the footage (once), and I only just drew that two weeks ago.
But, I WAS in a group of several people, including Kyle Yount from the kaijucast podcast (who also is responsible for breaking the image of Godzilla's face that everyone has seen). I drew that picture and sent it to everyone whose email address I had to get their feedback.
Kyle, it turned out, had drawn one of his own. I won't re-post that without his permission. His drawing was similar but not identical. It did ring some bells with me and the others who were there. So I then created the second drawing above that incorporates some of the aspects of his that struck a cord with me. I got further feedback from other people who were there, and this results in the third rendition, which can be seen in my re-creation of the trailer : (check my profile to see the trailer re-creation).
I believe that what I put in that trailer re-creation is closer than either of these sketches.
When we see the real thing, we'll see how good my memory was."

Another edit of "Kamen Rider Kabuto" done for fun, this time featuring Kabuto and Gatack battling worms in Episode 23, I believe. Completely wiped out the original soundtrack and replaced the sound effects and music.
Also, please forgive the occasional appearance of a subtitle edges in this video. Besides having no raw footage to work with, I've run into a weird bug where Premiere zoom outs from the original zoom point when it renders. The only way to fix this (that I've found) is to zoom in further in the edit, thus correcting the problem. I didn't think it was worth the fuss/time of doing another export so .. you get this 'flawed' version.
This video was done strictly for fan purposes. Kamen Rider Kabuto is owned by Toei.

#nezura #ネズラ1964 #kaiju
NEZURA 1964 is a brand new historical/drama/kaiju film directed by Hiroto Yokokawa depicting the insane-but-true story of the doomed 1960's kaiju eiga picture, GIANT HORDE BEAST NEZURA, in which the film's star vermin literally overran the production.
We interview Tokyo-based writer and film director Norman England about his experience attending the film's premiere in Japan last month, what he thought of the movie itself, as well as what it was like on set.
As of January 2021, NEZURA 1964 is currently showing in Japan with fans hoping for an international release sometime soon.
The motion picture is a joint venture between 3Y Film and Kadokawa with Hiroto Yokokawa (THE GIANT BUDDAH ARRIVAL, HEDORAH: SILENT SPRING) in the director's chair. NEZURA'S stacked and marvelous cast includes the likes of kaiju eiga veteran Yukijiro Hotaru (Shusuke Kaneko's GAMERA TRILOGY, GMK), Shiro Sano (GODZILLA 2000, GMK), Mach Fumiake (SUPER MONSTER GAMERA) and many others.
The film's official website can be seen at nezura1964.com
