Egyptian Theatre says…

Giant Monsters and Japanese Sci-Fi Night! GODZILLA, MOTHRA & KING GHIDORAH: GIANT MONSTERS ALL-OUT ATTACK, 2001, Sony Repertory, 105 min. Acclaimed by fans as one of the most exciting Godzilla films since the heyday of the 1960’s, "GMK" features a terrific, redesigned Big G (hint: he’s leaner, meaner and packs a nasty bite), bent on destroying Japan as vengeance for the restless souls of WWII victims. Standing in his way are the "Guardian Deities" – i.e. Mothra, King Ghidorah and Baragon. Director Shusuke Kaneko helmed the astounding trio of GAMERA films for Kadokawa-Daiei in the mid-1990s – here, he’s practically reinvented the Godzilla series for the 21st century. In Japanese with English subtitles. BATTLE IN OUTER SPACE, 1959, Sony Repertory, 90 min. Dir. Ishiro Honda. Nations of the world unite against a massive alien force, doing spaceship and raygun battle in space and on the moon to thwart the invaders' onslaught. A pretty impressive special effects display for the time period. English dubbedversion. With Ryo Ikebe, Kyoko Anzai, Koreya Senda, Yoshio Tsuchiya.
