The idea for King Kong vs Godzilla (1962) came from special effects
wizard, Willis O'Brien, who had created the special effects for King Kong
(1933). In the late 1950's, he pitched the idea for a movie to be titled King Kong vs. Frankenstein. The Frankenstein creature would have been a giant
monster created from different animals, but no American studio was interested
in the project. Unable to find an
American studio willing to back the project, producer John Beck offered the
idea to Toho who replaced Frankenstein with Godzilla.
