Enshohma's going 'Kaiju Krazy', all throughout the month of December!
"Tuko sa Madre Kakaw" is a long lost Pinyo (Philippine / Filipino cinema) science fiction film from 1959. And probably one of a handful of such Pinyo films to feature giant monsters from that period. And as such, these are the only known images available from this currently lost production.
Character actor Vic Diaz plays the role of a mad biologist, who plots to conquer the world and destroy mankind, by formulating a serum (or formula) that can increase the size of animals a hundred times. He tests the serum on a ‘tuko’ or gecko, which turns into a giant menacing reptile (possibly brought to life through a creature suit actor).
"Tuko sa Madre Kakaw" is reported to be based on the novel by Clodualdo del Mundo, and was serialized in the magazine "Hiwaga Komiks". The finished (lost) film also starred Willie Sotelo, Nita Javier, Hector Reyes, Luz Valdez, and Oscar Obligacion, and was directed by Richard Abelardo.
UPDATE:
is also going 'Kaiju Krazy' this month, by being possibly the first person in all America, if not all online, to give some of these extreme obscurities some simple, but appealing fan art. Check out his take on Tuko the Giant Gecko:
