| Those dastardly Planet Of The Apes have gone bananas and decided to level Japan by sending an effigy of Godzilla called MechaGodzilla. In desperation (and I'm talking extremely dire here), some morons must take a statue to some small house and perform a crappy ancient traditional dance backed my funk music to awaken a giant dog to handle MechaGodzilla. And of course, who could forget that loveable lizard Godzilla who is the defender of Tokyo in this film.
Man oh man was this film funny. I was laughing when these people went through hard times trying to bring a statue to a hut of some kind, while being hunted by aliens that do in fact look like the "Planet Of The Apes" characters, so they can awaken King Caesar from his slumber; and after all that, King Caesar turns out to be a fruitcake. How, may I ask, are you gonna' defeat a robot by biting his fingers? HUH, KING CAESAR? You dingleberry!
This is one of my favorite childhood films to watch. I loved the MechaGodzilla. He was such a bad-ass monster. By today's standards this film remains entertaining, even if it is cheezier than hell. King Caesar looks more like a malignant Muppet than he does a monster, but if it makes any difference, he is so fluffy and cute. DUUUHH! Anguris sucks and I'm glad he got his ass kicked. The special power of Godzilla for this film is that he can make himself magnetic.
Highly recommended if you like Godzilla films, and this one is one of the better ones of the old Godzilla era of the 70's. |
