My Comments
This movie was one of my old favorites, basically because Anguirus was in it. Well, I don't have much else to say about this one, so onto the synopsis...
Synopsis
A comic book artist named Gengo gets a job at World Children’s Land, an amusement park/museum devoted to all of Earth’s monsters and bringing perfect peace to the world. The headquarters of the park is located in the Godzilla Tower, a building surrounded by a life-size statue of Godzilla. The leaders of World Children’s Land, Fumio and Kubota, seem very strange to Gengo, and when he meets Machiko and Shosaku, his opinion is reinforced. Machiko’s brother Takeshi had been working for them when he disappeared without a trace. Machiko and Shosaku have also stolen a tape filled with nothing but electronic noise from Kubota and Fumio. However, when the tape is played, Godzilla and Anguirus awaken on Ogasawara Island and head for Japan, knowing something is terribly wrong. Meanwhile, Gengo, Machiko, and Shosaku learn that Kubota and Fumio are actually alien cockroaches from Nebula M SpaceHunter and have come to take over Earth since there planet had been destroyed by its own inhabitants. Godzilla and Anguirus finally arrive to try and stop them, but are met by the alien’s monster minions, Gigan and King Ghidorah. The monsters enter into a huge battle, but when the battle nears the Godzilla Tower, laser’s in the Godzilla statue’s mouth knock Godzilla down, turning the tide of battle in favor of Gigan and King Ghidorah. However, Gengo and co. manage to blow up the tower and Godzilla revives, rejoining Anguirus and together defeating Gigan and King Ghidorah, sending them retreating back into the blackness of space.
