King Kong vs. Godzilla
After 1960, American monster movies were less popular yet were still produced. However, Japanese kaiju films were popular during this decade. In 1962, "King Kong vs. Godzilla" was a kaiju film produced by Toho featuring both Godzilla and King Kong. In 1965, Japanese studio Kadokawa Pictures started their own kaiju franchise to rival that of Godzilla, in the form of "Gamera".
