Godzilla

“Godzilla, a weapon of science, a great battle of wonder and terror!”

Dr. Kyohei Yamane (Takashi Shimura) is a paleontologist sent to Odo Island after several ships go down off its coast and the villagers start talking about Gojira. What he finds there is a fifty-meter creature, and Japan has no plan for it. Ishirō Honda treats the monster as the nuclear tests made flesh, a danger the country already knows by name.
