Yes, I’m a giant chicken doing battle with SpaceGodzilla<\/strong><\/em>

Godzilla vs. SpaceGodzilla<\/b><\/i><\/a> (1994) features the iconic rubber suit monster in a three way cage match against SpaceGodzilla<\/strong><\/em>, Godzilla<\/strong><\/em>‘s outre clone from outer space (involving black holes, white holes, worm holes, and plot holes), and Mogera<\/strong><\/em>, the Japanese built (and, no doubt, predecessor to Pacific Rim<\/strong><\/em><\/a>) monster robot. But before that, we get many meaningless plot twists and turns involving a man with a grudge against Godzilla<\/em><\/strong> (a little like a grudge against the Moon); a team working to control Godzilla via telepathy (I do hope there’s no feedback, kids); the Mogera<\/strong><\/em> team, out to kill Godzilla<\/strong><\/em>; the Yakuza<\/a><\/strong><\/em> (maybe they funded the picture and were looking for some positive publicity), who see Godzilla in a junior role in the organization; and perhaps one or two others I missed. And, for some reason, Godilla, Jr, with hugely adorable eyes and a developmental problem with his superpower.
\n<\/b><\/i><\/p>\n

But after a lot of running around (hey, it’s a monster movie – he who walks gets squished), it all comes down to a climactic battle between the three heavyweights. As little can be made of the arbitrary battle as that of the plot twists; perhaps the most memorable part of the entire movie is the uncanny resemblance of Mogera<\/strong><\/em> to a giant … chicken. Right down to the wattles. That’s right, it even tries to peck SpaceGodzilla<\/strong><\/em> to death.<\/p>\n

If you’re six years old and love Godzilla<\/strong><\/em>, this is for you. Otherwise, just turn your head and don’t watch this train wreck.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
