Thanks to Godzilla and Kong, two different, but partially overlapping genres appeared in the cinema, in which people encounter giant monsters. These are American monster movies and Japanese films about kaiju (which means "outlandish beast" or "monster" in Japanese).

In both genres, fantastic creatures that come into conflict with humanity are in the foreground. But in American films, these monsters quite rarely destroy entire cities. This includes horror films about the Mummy, Dracula and the Wolf Man, and thrillers about aliens in small provincial towns, and - in some cases — really stories about huge dinosaurs and monkeys. The plots can be both simple and complex, but they most often retell some classic literary source, a book or a fairy tale.

"King Kong" as a franchise is more a tragedy about love than a fairy tale about a giant gorilla. In classic films about this character, the monster meets a beautiful woman, falls in love with her, is forcibly torn out of the familiar environment… And perishes, in fact — precisely because of his love.

Godzilla in the original films, in turn, is the personification of the forces of nature themselves in all their destructiveness, a symbol of earthquakes and typhoons that torment Japan every now and then. In the original 1954 Godzilla, he embodied atomic energy — no more, no less — and for the creators of that version, Hiroshima and Nagasaki were still recent events.
