* FridgeHorror: Given that the "roar" of the Matango quite literally sounds like an evil, sadistic laugh, which aside from relying on RuleOfScary, could indicate that not only are they sapient, but enjoy what they are doing.

* AdaptationalDisplacement: The movie is a CultClassic that is much more well-known than the short story it's loosely based off of.



* CultClassic: While not as well-known as the Godzilla films are, it's considered one of the greatest Japanese horror movies ever made and possibly Ishiro Honda's best film

* SacredCow: It’s universally hailed as one of Ishiro Honda’s finest works and one of Toho’s greatest films made during the Showa period. It would be unwise to critique it anywhere.

* AlternativeCharacterInterpretation: Sakuta's [[DrivenToSuicide final note on the ship]], claiming the other castaways died, offers a lot of room to ponder his fate. Did his isolation on the ship cause him to hallucinate the others dying? Did his guilt over abandoning them motivate him to try and leave a message that absolved himself? If so, did he ''truly'' feel guilty, or did he just want to protect his reputation? [[spoiler: Or did he discover the mushroom spores were airborne and offed himself before he could infect the mainland?]]
