King Kong gegen Godzilla (1974)

King Kong gegen Godzilla: Directed by Jun Fukuda. With Masaaki Daimon, Kazuya Aoyama, Reiko Tajima, Akihiko Hirata. An Okinawan prophecy appears to foretell Earth’s destruction at the hands of Godzilla, only for the true Godzilla to reveal his doppelganger as a mechanical alien weapon.

“This film was pretty much the beginning of the end of the Showa era. This film was very fast paced and had a lot of good fight sequences between the two monsters. However, the story left a little bit to be desired. In fact, the non monster scenes almost cause this movie to grind to a halt. At least the battle at the end featuring the new monster King Seesar helps to keep the film from going totally down the tubes. Also, this film isnu0026#39;t really for the faint of heart due to the fact that it is probably the bloodiest of all the Godzilla films. This film may not have been among the best in the series, but it still was pretty decent.”
