MOTHRA VS. GODZILLA (1964)
Special Features: 60th Anniversary
[MOSURA TAI GOJIRA] [モスラ対ゴジラ]
Godzilla faces off against the benevolent insect monster-god Mothra in this clash of the titans, a crossover battle between two of Toho Studios' most popular monsters — the last in which Godzilla would figure as a malevolent villain rather than a fearsome hero. MOTHRA VS. GODZILLA marks a creative high point in the Godzilla series, with pointed social commentary from director Ishirō Honda, a masterful score by Akira Ifukube and astonishing special-effects work by Eiji Tsuburaya. (Note courtesy of Janus Films.) DIR Ishirō Honda; SCR Shin'ichi Sekizawa; PROD Tomoyuki Tanaka. Japan, 1964, color, 89 min. In Japanese and Marshallese with English subtitles. NOT RATED
