There are few movie experiences more fun than an afternoon in the living room with your friends getting half-drunk and watching Godzilla. And if you're going to engage in drunken giant lizard watching, why not watch one of the Tokyo terror's most classic battles.
When people think Godzilla, they think Mothra and their big on screen battle is headed to DVD.
Classic Media has announced that they'll be releasing two new DVD titles, one is Mothra v. Godzilla (originally released in the US as Godzilla vs. The Thing, the other is Godzilla Raids Again.
Godzilla Raids Again: This sequel to the original and hugely successful Godzilla was rushed to the theaters six months after the release of the first film. Two new monsters emerged: the first similar to the original Godzilla that was killed by the oxygen destroyer in the first film, and also named Godzilla, the second a spiny dinosaur called Anguirus. The massive battle begins on Iwato Island, tumbles into the ocean, and resurfaces on Osaka, threatening to level the city under the monsters’ rage.
Mothra vs. Godzilla aka Godzilla vs. The Thing: Originally released in the US as Godzilla vs. The Thing, this fourth installment in the Godzilla series is considered by many fans as one of the best of the series. When a giant egg washes up on the shores of Tokyo after a typhoon, greedy businessmen seize the opportunity to exhibit the item at an amusement park for profit. The shobijin, fairies from Infant Island, come to plea for the egg’s return to its rightful owner, Mothra, but the men refuse the request. Soon Godzilla awakens and begins a trek across Tokyo, heading straight for Mothra’s egg. Can Mothra save her offspring from the destruction of Godzilla? Can Tokyo survive this epic monster battle?
Both movies will be available for purchase on November 7th, but there's a catch. You'll only be able to buy them through GodzillaOnDVD.com. If you don't buy them there, you'll have to wait until Spring 2007 to pick them up.
Wherever and whenever you buy them, expect to pay around $19.99 and expect a lot of special features. Both sets should include things like commentary tracks, trailers, and alternate versions of both films.
Check out cover art and screenshots from both movies on DVD below. Count me excited.
