List of films featuring giant monsters: This is an alphabetical list of films featuring giant monsters, known in Japan as kaiju.

The film influenced many giant-monster films in its wake, including many produced in Japan, starting with the adaptation "King Kong Appears in Edo" in 1938, which is now presumed to be a lost film.
