That's mainly what I meant when I mentioned "kaiju" though I didn't want to leave out a
couple of non-Godzilla monster movies they've released

I think anything they think has an overseas audience they won't put subs on! I wish I
were joking, but if they think their inlcusion might effect International Sales, no
subs. Interesting that they subbed HIMITSU after presumably ensuring the HK DVD was not
given Englsh subs. As much as I love some of their films, some of their policies (eg.
not allowing photos from kaiju films in US books) are simply horrible.
