"Matango" is a film that is not a traditional portrayal of the Robinson myth, but still manages to depict psychological suffering, paranoia, and the overall difficulty of the situation very well, in order to transfer the intensity of the situation to the viewer, as well as the suspense of what will actually happen. It is a bit of a departure from classic kaiju films, but certainly not a departure in a negative sense of the word.
