Kaiju: Giant Movie Monsters Headquarters

What's that, you say? You don't understand how a crazed German scientist can be a little-known Japanese kaiju? Aren't they focused on teh horrors of radiation? Well all things are possible in the land of giant movie monsters!

Although everyone knows that Victor Frankenstein didn't actually name his creation after himself, "everybody" includes neither movie makers nor kaiju movie translators, so somewhere along the line Dr. Frankenstein's creation was named after him, instead of calling him Adam (like Mary Shelley did) or Prometheus (which would have been as bad a name as "Frankenstein," but might have been the big fella's name if he had ever gone toe-to-toe with King Kong).

Frankenstein can never die, or at least his heart cannot, which is the reason why it was delivered by the Nazis to Japanese scientists in Hiroshima for experiments in immortality. Keep feeding it protein and it will grow a whole new body. Who knew that those pesky Allies would drop a nasty bomb on the lab shortly thereafter?

His heart may never die, but Frankenstein is just as susceptible to radiation as anyone. Of course, radiation can't kill him, so it's just going to have to make him grow larger. And larger. And larger. He hits 71 feet in his only appearance, but one can only guess how much larger he may have gotten if a volcano hadn't interfered with his growth spurt.

Perhaps the most intelligent kaiju, Frankenstein is not capable of human speech, but he fashions pit traps and uses fire. He also has a modicum of compassion, and despite his voracious appetite he avoids including humans in his diet.
