Space Monster Wangmagwi (Korean: 우주괴인 왕마귀; RR: Ujugoein wangmagwi; lit. Devil King, the Space Monster) is a 1967 South Korean kaiju film. It is the oldest surviving kaiju film to be made in South Korea, and the first all-Korean science fiction film. It was inspired by monster movies from Japan and America, such as Godzilla and King Kong. Particularly, the monster kidnaps a woman in a manner which is reminiscent of King Kong. The film is about an alien monster attacking South Korea, and features several comedic vignettes, all of which take place during the monster's rampage.
