ゴジラの逆襲
Schreibman, Goldman, and then-new financier Newton P. Jacobs decided to dub the film instead. Hugo Grimaldi was hired to oversee the dubbing and editing of the film. Masaru Sato's original music was replaced (except for a couple of tracks) with stock music from various libraries, including the MUTEL library, as well as music from films such as "Kronos" (1957), "Project Moonbase" (1958) and "The Deerslayer" (1957). Godzilla's roar was largely replaced with Anguirus' roar. This version had the working title of "Godzilla Raids Again", but the film was released in May 1959 as "Gigantis the Fire Monster" on a double-bill with "Teenagers From Outer Space". Schreibman took full credit for changing Godzilla's name to Gigantis, which was an attempt to convince audiences that "Gigantis" was a brand new monster, stating, "We called it 'Gigantis' because we didn't want it to be confused with 'Godzilla' [who had clearly been killed irreparably by the oxygenator]." At one point, Schreibman inaccurately told reporters that the original Japanese film was called "Angirus".
