2010




It's hard to measure the impact of King Ghidora on the Kaiju film continuum and on culture in general. A frequent victim of alien mind control, the "King of Terror" or "Monster Zero", as the press has dubbed him, may be Godzilla's favorite punching bag. When the citizens of Tokyo see Rodan overhead, they cry "Rodan is attacking the city. Lets run!" When it's King Ghidora overhead, they yell "Ha ha. Godzilla just bit off his middle head!" Or "Look at that belly!"
