My Thoughs: Ghidorah, the Three-Headed Monster[]

One of the stronger installments in the Showa era, and a pivotal one to boot.

Not only does this film introduce Godzilla's most renowned enemy, King Ghidorah, it also serves as a crossover with two of Toho's other monster films, making it very much the "Avengers" of its day and genre. Remember when people in the business actually knew crossovers and the like were what folks wanted to see? It wasn't until Marvel's superhero movies started up that the concept began to be taken seriously for the first time in many years.

But I digress. Anywho, the monster action is top notch for the Showa series; Goji's brawl with Rodan is pretty funny, while the final battle royal with Ghidorah is just classic.

The human characters, while not the strongest of the original series, are likable in they're own ways, and the Mothra Twins are always entertaining.

Overall, this is one of the crowning gems of the Showa series, and definitely worth a watch.
