Overview
An Okinawan prophecy that foretells the destruction of the Earth is seeming fulfilled when Godzilla emerges to return to his destructive roots. But not all is what it seems after Godzilla breaks his ally Anguirus’s jaw. Matters are further complicated when a second Godzilla emerges, revealing the doppelgänger as a mechanical weapon.

Viewing Notes
Often confuse this one with Terror of Mechagodzilla. I love the Okinawa setting and the big reveal. Somewhere there must be an essay on why Japan likes to make its aliens look like Apes. I’d like to a think a reference exists that lists all the instances of ape / gorilla aliens in Japanese television and film.
