Short description

A burning Godzilla, on the verge of meltdown, emerges to lay siege to Hong Kong. At the same time horrifying new organisms are discovered in Japan. These crustacean-like beings are seemingly born of the Oxygen Destroyer, the weapon that killed the original Godzilla.

What's left behind the scenes

This is the twenty-second film about Godzilla, the fourth about Little Godzilla, and the first and only one about Destoroyah.
With the death of the adult Godzilla, the Heisei era (1984-1995) comes to an end. Initially, the studio wanted to put the monster on hiatus, but due to the scathing criticism of the American version (1998), Toho decided to relaunch the series. The new Millennium / Shinsei era (1999-2004) ignored all previous films except the very first.
The Toho film company advertised this film as a grand finale to the entire franchise, however, Koichi Kawakita, responsible for the special effects, received even less funding and time for the production of special effects than was allocated for previous Godzilla films. Only 6 weeks were allotted for creating miniature models, 73 days for filming itself, and the post-production period was reduced to 3 weeks. According to Kawakita, this was the shortest shooting period in the history of Toho since the film “Godzilla vs. Biollante” (1989) directed by Kazuki Omori, Koji Hashimoto, and Kenjiro Omori.
