Ghidorah, the Three-Headed Monster Review

Review of Ghidorah, the Three-Headed Monster (1964) by screenqueeen: 👍 4/5

Arguably one of the best of the series. Ghidorah appears in the form of meteors landing on earth and materializing out of pure electricity, and proves itself a worthy adversary of Godzilla, as well as one of the coolest Toho monsters to ever be created. Ghidorah's design was significantly more complicated than that of Mothra or Rodan requiring at least 7 people as wire operators and one person in the suit. All that hard work paid off as Ghidorah actually comes off as fairly terrifying.

Mothra's plea to Godzilla and Rodan to set aside their differences also included the first bit of communication from Godzilla about the humans whose lives he's constantly been ending or putting in danger, as well as the state of their planet if Ghidorah gets its way. Simply and hilariously put: "I don't care."

I love this movie.
