Product Description

From Earth's thick and growing pollution a new monster is spawned. Hedrah, the smog monster, destroys Japan and fights Godzilla while spewing his poisonous gas to further the damage to life in Japan and to the rest of the world. Originally called Gojira tai Hedora before the US version of the film was released in 1972. This is the first film in the series since Mosura tai Gojira (1964) to have a strong social message attached to it. Filled with cool hip songs and cool hip young people having a good time. It is also the first Godzilla movie in which Godzilla demonstrates his ability to fly by firing his atomic breath towards the ground and propelling himself backwards.

1.0 out of 5 stars Bootleg!!, December 5, 2004

By	Marcus N. Hanks "drkainn" (Buffalo NY) - See all my reviews (REAL NAME)

This is a cheap bootleg. Do not even waste your time looking at anything beyond this review. Why is this even on Amazon?

1.0 out of 5 stars A rip-off, so look for other DVD releases of this movie!, January 26, 2005

By	GojiraBasu (New Hampster) - See all my reviews

Don't buy this piece of garbage. Godzilla fans have been subjected to sub-par VHS and DVD releases for years, and this is just the latest in a long list. Purchase "Godzilla vs Hedorah" from Sony/Tristar for the best DVD release of this film. Languages are the original Japanese w/ subtitles and the Toho International English dub. To get the AIP English dub, which was the version released to American theaters years ago, find a copy of the Smog Monster/Megalon Double Feature cheapie DVD on eBay. It's full screen and vastly inferior to the 'Hedorah' DVD, but you get the original AIP dub.

1.0 out of 5 stars CHeezy Flicks or Sleazy Ripoff, January 14, 2005

By	K. Weavil (Winston-Salem,NC) - See all my reviews (REAL NAME)

I ordered Godzilla Vs. the Smog Monster. Received the order promptly, but was very upset when I played the DVD and discovered I had King Kong instead! The packaging was correct, as was the labeling on the DVD, but the actual flick was an extremely poor copy of King Kong. Don't waste your time with these folks.
