Destroy All Monsters

Destroy All Monsters (1968)

Destroy All Monsters is the ninth entry in the Toho produced Godzilla film series, as well as Toho's 20th kaiju film (and in the time of filming it was intended to be the final Godzilla film). In this film an alien race establishes a mental control over all Earth monsters and uses them against mankind. But their plans fail at last, and a motley crew of Godzilla, Anguirus, Rodan, Gorosaurus, and other kaiju triumphs over the ultimate weapon of the aliens, the three-headed King Ghidorah.
