Godzilla vs. Biollante (1989) with Gavin Mevius

  • Summary

  • Spring flowers are in bloom, and so is our girl Biollante! Gavin from The Mixed Reviews joins us for Kazuki Ōmori's masterful Heisei film featuring one of the wildest and most complex monster designs of all time. And the only chimera weirder than a Godzilla/rose/human hybrid is the movie itself -- a combo of 80s genetic horror, James Bond, teen psychics, and hover tanks that comes from a story by a dentist and features music by the Dragon Quest composer. We talk about this movie's strange conception, torch-passing to a new generation, genetic engineering fears, mindblowing special effects, and more!
