Talks, vendors, and additional Godzilla fun and performances in between!

Doors open at 11AM !

Mothra vs. Godzilla (Ishiro Honda, 1964) 12PM – 1:30PM

Godzilla faces off against the benevolent insect monster-god Mothra in this clash of the titans, a crossover battle between two of Toho Studios’ most popular monsters—the last in which Godzilla would figure as a malevolent villain rather than a fearsome hero. Mothra vs. Godzilla marks a creative high point in the Godzilla series, with pointed social commentary from director Ishiro Honda, a masterful score by Akira Ifukube, and astonishing special-effects work by Eiji Tsuburaya.

Destroy All Monsters (Ishiro Honda, 1968) 2:15PM – 3:45PM
The original Godzilla team of director Ishiro Honda, special-effects supervisor Eiji Tsuburaya, and composer Akira Ifukube reunited for this kaiju extravaganza, which features no fewer than eleven monsters. Set in the remote future of 1999, when the people of Earth have achieved world peace by confining destructive creatures to Monsterland (until an alien race intervenes), Destroy All Monsters mounts a thrilling display of innovative action sequences and memorable images that have made it a favorite for generations of viewers.

Godzilla, Mothra, and King Ghidorah: Giant Monsters All Out Attack (Shusuke Kaneko 2001) 4:30PM – 6:15PM

In this brand-new adventure, Godzilla returns to his “bad guy” roots as he rampages through Japan just like in the good ol’ days. In response, an ancient religious sect resurrects the legendary “Holy Beasts of Yamato” (Ghidorah, Mothra and Baragon) to protect Japan and destroy the threat of Godzilla forever.
