The London Barbican Cinema have announced a short series of kaiju films across September and December: All Kaiju Attack: Earth SOS!
Focussing on some of the more environmental aspects of the Godzilla series and a single Gamera entry, each with an introduction, including Godzilla vs Biollante, which was recently released by Criterion on Blu-ray.
A shame perhaps that they missed out the wonderful, bonkers and very on-topic Godzilla vs Hedorah (aka The Smog Monster), but we can't have everything, can we?
Tickets are available here and details of the screenings below.
