In order to move forward, we have to step back. This week, we look at the heavily re-edited and re-dubbed American version of Ishirō Honda’s Gojira, 1956’s Godzilla, King of the Monsters! featuring new scenes directed by Terry O. Morse and now starring Raymond Burr as American reporter Steve Martin. The guys discuss what this edit job did to the film, what effect the changes had on this iteration of the story, favorite moments, and more.
