The Secret of the Telegian (1960)
The Secret of the Telegian, released in Japan as Densō Ningen, is a 1960 tokusatsu sci-fi/horror/mystery film. Produced by Toho Company, Ltd., the film was directed by Jun Fukuda (this was his first tokusatsu work), and written by Shinichi Sekizawa, with special effects by Eiji Tsuburaya and some scenes by Teruyoshi Nakano. Herts-Lion International Corp. acquired the western hemisphere rights to the film in January 1964 and planned to release it theatrically in the US in February of that year on a double bill with Dungeons of Horror. This proposed US theatrical release was aborted, and the film was subsequently syndicated to TV. Besides being in black and white, the TV prints were identical to Toho's uncut international English version, dubbing and all.
