MOTW- Baragon

Baragon!  The monster that challenged the Frankenstein monster that conquered the world!  This is a burrowing beast, able to dig through solid rock in seconds.  It has the help of some kind of heat beam, though it is never explained in the movie (at least, not the English dub).  It was not the largest monster that walked the Earth.  It is a very popular monster, even though it barely has three movie appearances to it's name.  It's a pretty cute monster, despite it's propensity to eat just about anything it can.

As a kid, I didn't know what airbrushed movie stills were.  Look at Baragon there, shooting bolts of lightning from it's mouth.  That never happens in the movie, and yet there it is.  This was a mystery to me for many years.
