PRINCE OF SPACE (YUSEI OJI) (1959)
I noticed there wasn't already a thread about this memorable train wreck. So, talk about it if you want.Does anybody know where I can find the two-part, 121 minute Japanese version? I really want to...

The two original serial chapters in Japanese plus THE FINAL WAR on a DVD would be an absolute godsend. NEPTUNE MEN can be found in a subtitled form if you look in the right places... BTW, I identified...

I believe that Wikipedia having a Prince of Space page is one of the Signs of the Apocalypse. One of the main signs.

The Wikipedia page is actually mainly about the TV series that spawned the serial.

The original Toei PRINCE OF SPACE is not a "Serial" (it doesn't have 12 Chapters), but is rather two featurettes — much like the Shintoho's Supergiant featurettes. Both parts of PRINCE OF SPACE, 57...

I have a 1:35 (two verse) version of the song on the first volume of a mid-1990s CD compilation series, "Nostalgic Tokusatsu TV Heroes"! What's the source of the track you have?

I ripped it from a Japanese Youtube video. It sounds LP-ish. Here is the third verse: Hikari kagayaku unabara o Kinkin tobu yo sora tobu enban Don'na teki ni mo makenai zo Boku-ra mo tsuzuke yūki o...

I finally found the two original Japanese featurettes! Toei uploaded them to Youtube, and through a proxy I was able to strip the country restriction and watch them, and oh boy, what a revelation it...

Thanks to DougGorius, I was also able to see the Japanese version (well, just the first film so far)! I don't speak Japanese, so the scenes that aren't in the US version were hard to follow, but here...

A bit off topic, but is the Something Weird release of Prince of Space authourised by Toei, and if so, what are the chances of a subtitled blu-ray of Message From Space from Something Weird?
