Directed by Takao Okawara • 1992 • Japan Starring Tetsuya Bessho, Satomi Kobayashi, Takehiro Murata

Updating the 1964 kaiju classic MOTHRA VS. GODZILLA for the Heisei era, this quasi-remake reunites the King of the Monsters with one of his most beloved sidekicks/adversaries for a satisfyingly battle-packed rematch. After a meteorite crashes into Earth, it awakens the slumbering Godzilla, sending him on a rampage across Japan. Now, it’s up to the benevolent winged protector Mothra—joining forces with her villainous counterpart Battra, making his debut here—to stop the mayhem.
