A monster's head looks best crushed, so give thanks to Kaiju Big Battel for ten years of overstuffed mayhem. Melding Godzilla's grandeur with old-school WWF antics, the manga-damaged fantasy pits costumed brawlers against each other in a head-to-head celebration of cartoonish violence and generally irresponsible behavior. After last February's unforgettable appearance at New York City's Webster Hall, the troupe shows up on the west coast for a brand new blowout.
