In postwar Japan, Godzilla brings new devastation to an already scorched landscape. With no military intervention or government help in sight, the survivors must join together in the face of despair and fight back against an unrelenting horror.
Visual Effects
$15 million budget, Hollywood-beating creature work. Embarrassing for them.
Direction
Yamazaki shoots Godzilla like horror, not spectacle. Unsettling genius.
Score
Ifukube's theme returns, but the original music? Devastating.
