Bootleg Blu-rays of Godzilla movies on Amazon!

Post by kingkevzilla88 »

Warning! there is a person or group, calling themselves Toho Company that have a ton of bootleg blu-rays of Kaiju movies. This might be the same person or group that is putting up these movies on Prime Video.

I don't know how many more of these they are and if this is only effecting Japanese movies. Just be really careful if you are buying any movie from amazon right now.

I would hope anyone posting here would recognize these as bootlegs...

I don't feel bad for anyone who's able to look at those and think they'll be getting something legitimate. At that point, they deserve to have their money wasted.

lol @ the 4 out of 5 star Ghidorah review that calls it "a bad copy of a Toho classic but it's such a classic it doesn't matter." What goes on in these people's brains?
In my opinion, of course.

I : tried to talk about the bootlegs on Amazon over on Devaintart and got this response:

So what and who cares. Might as well go and complain to the actual companies in Japan and being a real hero to them.

Go do it now curry.

These are free to watch, at the moment at least. There have been/are several bootleg dvd's on Amazon however. I haven't paid for any of them.
To all you dub preservationists, my friends, you have my eternal thanks 8-) . Never stop what you do, you are amazing!

The DAM one made me bust a gut. Also, anyone gullible enough to think these are legit will sure be disappointed about Orochi in The Three Treasures.

It looks like they're doing the same thing with Jackie Chan and Jet Li movies, under the name of Golden Harvest Company. I really do wonder how many more of these up on Amazon?

Definitely looks like the same individual(s) responsible for the Prime video listings.
Check out the PG version of my short film, "Destroy All Sisters".

It looks like the cheeky little shit behind these bootlegs, is moving on to the Hammer Film catalogue. As they have a listen for the Hammer Quatermass movies.

And, yes their still up for sale on Amazon. I'm shocked that this is still going on.

On a related note a company called SGL Entertainment claims they have distribution rights to Matango: https://sglmoviestore.com/classic-films ... om-people/
