Fun Stuff

Trivia:
Toho decided to include monsters that have not been seen in a while, along with some of their other monsters whose movies were not connected to the Godzilla series. Anguirus had made his first appearance since "Godzilla Raids Again" (1955); Baragon was last seen in "Frankenstein Conquers the World" (1965); Gorosaurus starred in "King Kong Escapes" (1967); Manda was in "Atragon" (1963) and Varan starred in "Varan the Unbelievable" (1958). more
Goofs:
Miscellaneous: When the reporter announces that Baragon is attacking Paris, it is actually Gorosaurus. The Baragon suit was loaned out to Tsubaraya Productions for use on one of their television series and wasn't returned in time for filming. more
Quotes:
Kilaak Queen: Ghidorah is a space monster. The monsters from Earth cannot win. I will get in touch with you, when you feel like giving up.
Major Tada: Why that...

The best Godzilla movie., 5 June 1999
10/10
Author: Guilala from Bridgewater, MA, USA

This is certanly one of the best Godzilla movies. After years of disappearing of the video shelves and being one of the most obscure Godzilla films, it made appearances on the Sci-Fi channel and was released on video in a nicely dubbed version which was also apparently from some gorgeous Tohoscope letterboxed master. It features most of the monsters (Godzilla, Rodan. Mothra, Ghidrah, Minya, Anguirus, Manda, Baragon, Spigas, and Varan). However, there still are monsters they should of added (the H-men, the Matango, the Gragantuas, King Kong). OK, so the monsters are sent to monster island to live. However, evil alien women get mind control over the monsters (as well as some humans) and send the monsters out on a destruction spree and have the humans do their evil bidding. Eventually, the aliens' evil plan is stopped by clever Japanese scientists. The aliens send Ghidrah to kill Godzilla and friends and is defeated by the the monsters. If you have never seen a Godzilla film or are going to watch only one Godzilla film this year, watch this one.
