Revue Event: GODZILLA 1985 – 40th Anniversary Screening!

Runtime: 87 mins | Release Year: 1985 | Rating: PG | Genre(s): Action, Science Fiction, Thriller
Production Country: Japan | Original Language: English

Originally released in Japan as “The Return of Godzilla” in 1984, this is the heavily re-edited, re-titled “Godzilla 1985”. Adding in new footage of Raymond Burr, this 16th Godzilla film ignores all previous sequels and serves as a direct follow-up to the 1956 “Godzilla King of the Monsters”, which also featured scenes with Burr edited into 1954’s “Godzilla”. This film restores the darker tone of the original, as we witness the nuclear destruction of giant lizard terrorizing Japan.

40th Anniversary Screening! 

 

Join us at The Revue for a 40th Anniversary Screening of the Americanized version of “The Return of Godzilla.” 

 

(Please note: We generally always screen the original language version of GODZILLA movies, but we are making an exception for this screening only as this version was known as a gateway film for GODZILLA fans in the eighties!)
