11/13. A couple of WAG's, but easier than I thought it would be.
12/13...wow. I guessed at some of those. Lucky
This was so much fun,what memories! Still a fan of the giant monster flicks from the '50s, saw "Godzilla,King of the Monsters" as a wide eyed five year old. No one could convince me that scene where he's stomping thru that railyard and the people are fleeing from that behemoth wasn't real! And because it was filmed in B/W made the movie even more eerie and terrifying. I had nightmares for awhile after seeing it but absolutely loved it!
that movie still holds up
