To celebrate Father's Day, my wife and daughter took me to the charming Bay Theater in Seal Beach to see an entry in the GODZILLA series that had somehow escaped me up to this point: Kazuki Omori's GODZILLA VS. BIOLLANTE (1989), in which the King of the Monsters fights a dead girl who has taken the form of a giant red rose with teeth. This might be the strangest kaiju beatdown I've ever seen, and that's saying something! I recommend it highly, of course...
Note: The 2025 Criterion blu-ray edition sports a brand new cover painted by the inimitable Eric Powell of THE GOON fame...
