Originally released in Japan as “The Return of Godzilla” in 1984, this is the heavily re-edited, re-titled “Godzilla 1985”. Adding in new footage of Raymond Burr, this 16th Godzilla film ignores all previous sequels and serves as a direct follow-up to the 1956 “Godzilla King of the Monsters”, which also featured scenes with Burr edited into 1954’s “Godzilla”. This film restores the darker tone of the original, as we witness the nuclear destruction of giant lizard terrorizing Japan.

In this Star Wars take-off, the peaceful planet of Jillucia has been nearly wiped out by the Gavanas, whose leader takes orders from his mother (played a comic actor in drag) rather than the Emperor. King Kaiba sends out eight Liabe holy seeds, each to be received by a chosen one to defend the Gavanas. Each recipient, ranging from hardened General Garuda to Gavana Prince Hans to young Terrans Meia, Kido, and Aaron all have different reactions to being chosen.
