An ill-advised remake of the ACTUAL original Godzilla film only two years after that came out and man this stinks. The reinserted footage of Raymond Burr is thoroughly unconvincing and the re-dubbing of the dialogue is mostly atrocious. The scenes of destruction and its aftermath on the Japanese people is great visual commentary on the political climate during the Atomic age.
