good but strange
Hedorah is a monster made from poullention and is hungry itll eat every thing even Godzilla so Godzilla goes after it and it beats godzilla.Then godzilla returns and wants to get Hedorah.
I prefer the AIP cut
I loved this film as "Godzilla Vs. The Smog Monster" - the AIP cut of the film. Somehow it was freakier and more fun to watch. This version just seemed to straight to enjoy the cheesy joy. I hope that now that Sony own MGM which has AIP's vault, that they will include the American versions of these films.
I don't care if you think they were butchered - i enjoyed that cut of Godzilla meat.
Godzilla vs A Peice of Poop
The Special Effects for this movie are pretty bad but nothing so terrible you can't bare to watch it. Still Hedorah is one of the weirdest movies I've ever seen. I had to watch it a couple times before I finally really understood it. The hippies and all the 70 stuff really made the movie distracting especially the annoying Save the Earth song. Plus, the most disturbing moment in film history can be found here. Breaking just about every rule of physics, Godzilla actually flies. A bit on the totally weird side there LOL. Still as Banno wanted this movie is a bit dark at times. Let my point out one scene where Hedorah sprays a bunch of people and they die after being disformed and mutated. Then there are two scenes where it shows an innocent creature in Hedorha's path. First, Hedorah's sludge traps a kitten its its goo. The small animal is covered in Hedorah's poisenous sap and would probably and painfully die. Then there's another scene where is shows a small baby waist deep in Heodrah's slime crying for his mother. Of course, since the slime is poisenous the baby would die slowly just like the kitten. In other words, this movie could be looked at comicly but then when you finally really get it you start to see what Banno wanted you to see. At other times it shows garbage from dolls to grandfather clocks floating on the water with dead fish covered in garbage that people just threw away into Tokyo Bay. Once you get this movie you start to see what our Earth is coming to. SAVE THE EARTH!!!
