About this product
Product Information
Godzilla: The Showa-Era Films, 1954-1975 (Criterion Collection) In 1954, an enormous beast clawed its way out of the sea, destroying everything in its path—and changing movies forever. The arresting original Godzilla soon gave rise to an entire monster-movie genre (kaiju eiga), but the King of the Monsters continued to reign supreme: in fourteen fiercely entertaining sequels over the next two decades, Godzilla defended its throne against a host of other formidable creatures, transforming from a terrifying symbol of nuclear annihilation into a benevolent (if still belligerent) Earth protector. Collected here for the first time are all fifteen Godzilla films of Japan’s Showa era, in a landmark set showcasing the technical wizardry, fantastical storytelling, and indomitable international appeal that established the most iconic giant monster the cinema has ever seen. Eight-disc set includes: Godzilla (1954) Atomic testing in the Pacific awakens a gigantic reptilian creature dubbed Godzilla off the coast of Japan and sends the monstrous menace on a rampage across Tokyo and its environs. Director Ishiro Honda's "kaiju" classic spawned innumerable sequels; Akihiko Hirata, Takashi Shimura, Momoko Kochi, and Haru Nakajima star. Includes the original Japanese release "Gojira" and the 1956 re-dubbed American version "Godzilla, King of the Monsters," with Raymond Burr. 96 min. In Japanese with English subtitles/Dubbed in English. Godzilla Raids Again (1955) While flying over a remote island, two pilots spot Godzilla (which may or may not be the same Big G supposedly destroyed in the first film) fighting with another creature, the spine-covered Anguirus. When the beasts' battle brings them to mainland Japan, officials must find a way to stop their destructive "monster mash." Minoru Chiaki, Hiroshi Koizumi star. 82 min. In Japanese with English subtitles King Kong vs. Godzilla (1962) It's the showdown monster fans dreamed of, as the great ape is found alive and well (!) in the South Seas and brought to Japan, where he has an all-out slugfest atop Mt. Fuji with the mean, green lizard king. Michael Keith, James Yagi, and Mie Hama co-star alongside the two biggest titans in movie history. 91 min. In Japanese with English subtitles. Mothra vs. Godzilla (1964) A giant egg washes up on a Japanese beach and is taken to a Tokyo amusement park. But when the egg's mother--the winged wonder known as Mothra--shows up to reclaim it, and a revived Godzilla is on the rampage in Tokyo, the stage is set for a monster-sized showdown. Akira Takarada, Yuriko Hoshi, and the Ito Sisters star. 89 min. In Japanese with English subtitles. Ghidorah, The Three-Headed Monster (1964) Mothra, Rodan, and the king of them all, Godzilla, join forces to protect the Earth from the alien menace of King Ghidorah, a thrice-domed, golden-scaled, bat-winged beastie with designs on widespread property destruction. This spectacular monster mash solidified the green guy's conversion from villain to hero. Yosuke Natsuki, Yuriko Hoshi star. 93 min. In Japanese with English subtitles. Invasion Of Astro-Monster (1965) An alien planet asks to "borrow" Earth monsters Godzilla and Rodan to help them defeat their own indigenous menace, triple-headed Ghidorah, who moved off-world after his defeat in the 1964 film that bore his name (how embarrassing). Little do the gargantuan good guys know it's all part of a sinister invasion plot. Nick Adams stars as an Earth astronaut. 94 min. In Japanese with English subtitles/Dubbed in English. Ebirah, Horror Of The Deep (1966) Remember those Sea Monkeys you had as a kid? Well, one of them's 160 feet long and being used by a terrorist group out to take over the world! Good thing their island base is also home to Godzilla, who teams with Mothra to turn the colossal crustacean into so much shrimp cocktail. Akira Takarada, Jun Tazaki star. AKA: "Godzilla vs. The Sea Monster." 88 min. In Japanese with English subtitles. Son Of Godzilla (1968) It's

- 1***3 (47)- Feedback left by buyer.Past 6 monthsVerified purchaseCouldn't be happier! The book is in pristine condition, the discs work perfectly, and it's probably the single best way to own the first fifteen Godzilla films - and this is the best price you'll find for it! Highest recommendation!
- z***t (1)- Feedback left by buyer.Past yearVerified purchaseI thought the packaging was going to be similar to the type of covers used for vinyl records, but I was extremely surprised to see that it has a hard cover! It's also insanely big! Attached is a picture compared to a more standard DVD case. (In this case, a GameCube game) It also comes with a super neat art book where it includes information on each of the movies included! What an amazing presentation!
- y***2 (819)- Feedback left by buyer.Past yearVerified purchaseThis set is physically quite large, thin but longer than a large textbook. Great quality. There are 2 movies on each disk. Seller is excellent and shipped quickly. Very pleased with my purchase would highly recommend both the seller and the Godzilla set.
- t***2 (42)- Feedback left by buyer.Past monthVerified purchaseItem arrived in expected condition, exactly as shown in pictures & as described in the listing. It was packaged very well to make sure there were no issues affecting quality during the shipping process. The price paid for the item + shipping was extremely fair. Total time from date of purchase until arrival was 5 days, fast shipping speed. Entire transaction went smoothly, no complaints. Highly satisfied with everything about this purchase and would recommend this seller to others.
- m***m (2311)- Feedback left by buyer.Past 6 monthsVerified purchaseI’m thrilled with my recent purchase . The website was user-friendly, and the product descriptions were accurate. Customer service was prompt and helpful, answering all my questions. My order arrived quickly, well-packaged, and the product exceeded my expectations in quality. I’m impressed with the attention to detail and the overall experience. I’ll definitely shop here again and highly recommend from this seller to others. Thank you for a fantastic experience!
- m***5 (28)- Feedback left by buyer.Past monthVerified purchaseExcellent price, came fast and is new as described however when it was packed in it's tight shipping box the flap from inside the shipping box damaged the pop box when packing/closing it up. The outside of the shipping box was undamaged. Kind of sucks. Not sure if I want to return and reorder just to have a mint pop box. A credit of some kind would be appreciated. Definitely would buy from again despite the small problem.
