@@Sentenal yea but that was the first godzilla who died in the first movie The second godzilla is more of an alegory for nature itself and he kinda acts as an protector of the enviroment
"But then Hedorah comes from outerspace, so it's not our fault." Well if Hedorah crashed on a clean Earth he would have died because there's no pollution. So it is still our fault.
@Jurassic Hero If anybody sent Hedorah, it probably would have been the Nebulans. They attack in the very next movie, and they’re from a world destroyed by pollution, so I can easily see a creature that feeds on pollution evolving there.
Pollution, as defined as carbon emissions, would still exist. Don't forget; all 'pollution' is still material matter. It's not like man has warped reality to the point that a new existence has been generated.
Hedorah: “Godzilla! I need you to tell me that I can destroy Tokyo whenever I want!” Godzilla: “Hedorah, you may destroy Tokyo when-“ Hedorah: “B*TCH DON’T TELL ME WHAT TO DO!”
"Did you ever stop and think that maybe we're the real Godzilla, man?" KOTM took this line as a challenge. The writers didn't get drug fueled sarcasm, explains a lot.
Fun fact to Godzilla fans: the suit actor playing Hedorah took over playing Godzilla in the '80s & the 1st half of the '90s. 1 of the reasons why I love this episode. Its a tie in to Godzilla 1985. 😀
"Yep, he's a Kenny alright..." Well in that case.... Godzillaaaaa! Godzillaaaaaa! Godzilla is really neat! He is made of dino meat! We've been eating Godzillaaaaaa!
Do we admit we hate 1998? (YES!) But are we pleased with TO-HO'S GRUDGE?! (NO!) Weee thiiiink that Godzilla should Bloooowtorch them to deeeeeath! Godzilla is really neat! Godzilla is really sweet! We believe in Godzillaaaaaa!
I saw this when I was a kid and I pushed all these memories into the back of my head because it freaked me out so bad. Especially the scene where hedorah just kills some people doing a yoga lesson, like wtf
I know Brandon doesn't really do characters in his reviews, but Freaked-out Smoked Aviators Brandon was astoundingly authentic. "Look man, I need you to tell me that I'm not gonna die if I leave this car, alright??" Saw a guy at a party who was that tripped out, thought he was a pitcher of orange juice and refused to move.
When me and my friend watched this movie, i knew that he watched it before and just nearly lost his sanity sitting through this...so I did what I had to: Quoting Raoul Duke from Fear and Loathing in Las Vegas. You’d be surprised how PERFECTLY FITTING most of his quotes would go with the movie. *scene of fish masks in dance bar* “I was right in the middle of a fucking reptile zoo! And somebody was giving BOOZE to these animals! It won’t be long now before they tear us to shreds.” Teens gather to sing against pollution: “But our trip was different. It was to be a classic affirmation of everything right and true in the national character. A gross physical salute to the fantastic possibilities of life in this country. But only for those with true grit.” Godzilla trapped in a pit getting hedorah sludge all over him: “Panic. It crept up my spine like first rising vibes of an acid frenzy. All these horrible realities began to dawn on me. There I was. Alone in Las Vegas, completely twisted on drugs, no cash, no story for the magazine, and on top of everything else, a gigantic god damned hotel bill to deal with. How would Horatio Alger handle this situation? Stay calm. Stay calm.” Godzilla appears seeming to be destructive while trying to ward off Pollution: “I'm a relatively respectable citizen. Multiple felon perhaps, but certainly not dangerous.” Showing off invention that’ll hopefully stop Hedorah regenerating: “Now this was a superior machine. Ten grand worth of gimmicks and high-priced special effects. The rear windows lit up with a touch like frogs in a dynamite pond. The dashboard was full of esoteric lights and dials and meters that I would never understand.” Godzilla walks away heroically: “There he goes. One of God's own prototypes. A high-powered mutant of some kind never even considered for mass production. Too weird to live, and too rare to die.” Seriously I could keep this up but you get my point. But my best friend laughed SO much and so loud it was worth it. EDIT: oh! See? Whatd I tell you! 8:38
wait a second. Fish people, an amorph and vaguely squid like monster, is this what you get when script writers had some weed and read too much HP Lovecraft?
Before the Japanese version was recently shown on TCM, I had forgotten how "Trippy" psychedelic this movie was! When I was younger, I couldn't figure it out, now I MUST have it for my collection! Hopefully, the American version will turn up on Blu Ray!
@@pulsarstargrave256 unfortunately no, so you'll have get it individually. But I would recommend the Criterion collection if you don't mind not having the dubbed versions for all of them, the quality is excellent and you still get the dubbed versions for about half of them for a cheaper price than buying them individually (some godzilla movies sell for no less than $30 each).
What you called "castration" or "tearing out eyeballs," I figured to be eggs that could have made new Hedorahs, and Godzilla pinpointed their location by an instinct something like an ant's to destroy the rival group's eggs.
Also fun fact: at 8:16 the scene where the 4 guys are playing Majong (I think) and then get killed by Hedorah, the 3rd guy from the left was actually one of the suit actors for Rodan.
This was one of the most hard-core Godzilla film I’ve ever seen. Hedorah takes a dump on the great one, and laughs😆! That drew enough heat for Godzilla kick that monster‘s a&$!
this is a callback to Saturday afternoons from 1 to 4pm. Creature Double Feature. in the 70's and early 80's Boston UHF channel 56 gave us 2 monster movies each Saturday. thanks for the memories Brandon.
I actually saw “Godzilla v the Smog Monster” @ the movie theater, as a kid, when it first came out & LUVED IT! Btw, those horns in Godzilla’ s intro music are AWESOME! 🎺🎷
Going through the Showa-era Godzilla-Flicks these days (thanks to the Criterion-Set) and watched this flick yesterday... and it just might be one of my favourites so far, mostly on account of it having such a different feel and look when compared to all the films that predeced it. Hedorah is a fascinating and unique monster that gives Godzilla a *real* hard time. Also, the fact that it actually has something to say, a message, makes it stand out. The last movie to do this was the 1954-Original with its warnings against the misuse of nuclear power. This time, its pollution and humans destoying the enviroment (still a relevant topic 50 Years later) and the premise of having the two monsters whose origins are connected to these issues fight one another is great. The movie is a little slow, the characters are shallow and mostly forgotten about near the end and the Soundtrack is... weird, but that doesnt really diminish my apprechiation.
All big Japan companies are not ok with anyone using footage of their product without their consent. You think TOHO are bad? Look up how much youtube videos were blocked by Nintendo and SEGA.
I think this is a highly underrated gem of a movie. One of my childhood favorites. Hedorah is amazing and played excellently by Kenpichiro Satsuma, who would go on to play Gigan in the next movie and then played Godzilla for the entire Heisei series. This is also one of my personal favorites of Nakajima's Godzilla performances. Overall 8/10 movie.
I remember sitting in the car at the drive-in for this movie when I was a toddler. Don't recall which one (or both) of my parents brought me, but I remember the cast-aluminum speaker closed into the car window, being absolutely terrifed when the dude diving was attacked (approached?), and literally the only other part I remember was Godzilla flying...which I thought was the most awesome thing I had ever seen. Probably was, I was only like 2 or 3 years old, I think.
This was one of the first godzilla movies I saw, the first one I believe being godzilla vs biollante. I used to watch this movie all the time. It was my all time favorite godzilla film and one of the only ones I owned from the Showa era. This movie holds a special place in my heart with godzilla vs biollante,
What they have isn't really the same as fair use or open domain, but most of the time it's an American or English extension of the companies that get it flagged.. though with these i wouldn't be surprised if it's really japan's toho
I remember this from when I was a kid, and thinking how over-the-top the environmental message was. Oh and the Go-Go scene is actually my favorite part, somehow changing it makes it more impactful.
Believe it or not. Hehdorah was the first Godzilla monster I learned of after Godzilla himself. I remmber as a kid I asked my dad what monsters did Godzilla fight and he was the first one my dad brought up a giant slag monster from outer space after watching all these Godzilla movie reviews I was wondering if I'll ever see said monster on Brandon's channels. Just seeing the cover art alone I knew I found the monster I first was told about years ago. I just find it insane how my father left the part out that this movie counts as a acid trip when watching it.
this movie is about the only one I specifically remember seeing the commercial for. I think it was called Godzilla vs The Smog Monster. it was for our local uhf channel WLVI 56. Saturdays 1-4pm for Creature Double Feature. thanks for this review.
The ghosts are probably “kami”, spirits of Japanese ancestors who are connected to nature after death in the Japanese traditional Shinto religion. Just a guess, though.
I really miss Brandon's Godzilla vs. Gigan. Looked for it all over the internet. Seems like one of those things that nobody ever thought to reupload. Damn shame. It was one of the funnier ones, at least in my opinion. They are all hilarious though. ;p
Sorry for all the obstructive text, but...y'know...

Ever sit back and think about how this is a movie about an allegory for pollution being defeated by an allegory for nuclear weapons?
Well nuclear energy is considered the best chance for clean energy
@@harrybechtle4333 True, but Godzilla is an allegory for nuclear weapons such as the atomic bomb, not just nuclear energy in general.

Hedorah opening his eyes with a startled look as he hears Godzilla roar, is one of the funniest moments in all of the franchise.
Have you forgot about the whole 1998 movie?
@paleodon6896 less funny, more regretful. But it gets more hate than it deserves. I saw it and I must say, it was very enjoyable.
"But then Hedorah comes from outerspace, so it's not our fault."
Well if Hedorah crashed on a clean Earth he would have died because there's no pollution.
So it is still our fault.
Well no shit Sherlock
@Jurassic Hero it has no origin, you can always assume

What they have isn't really the same as fair use or open domain, but most of the time it's an American or English extension of the companies that get it flagged.. though with these i wouldn't be surprised if it's really japan's toho
Japan is just...different
Never knew an acid trip could be a Godzilla movie tbh (I haven't seen Fear And Loathing In Las Vegas yet. Don't @ me).
Always been one of my favorite godzilla movies
*SAME!!*
I remember this from when I was a kid, and thinking how over-the-top the environmental message was. Oh and the Go-Go scene is actually my favorite part, somehow changing it makes it more impactful.
Re-upload again?
Also, holy shit, I think Marty might be the killer!
Is it wrong that i think this looks like it could be bizarrely entertaining ?
That guy is the Japanese spider man
Godzilla vs The Smog Monster was my favorite movies when I was young and an avid Godzilla fan
OH MY GOD TOHO, STOP BLOCKING BRANDON DAMMIT.
I used to love drawing The Smog Monster and MechaGodzilla when I was a kid
18:32 eyes still in place soooo, the first guess was actually correct!
Believe it or not. Hehdorah was the first Godzilla monster I learned of after Godzilla himself. I remmber as a kid I asked my dad what monsters did Godzilla fight and he was the first one my dad brought up a giant slag monster from outer space after watching all these Godzilla movie reviews I was wondering if I'll ever see said monster on Brandon's channels. Just seeing the cover art alone I knew I found the monster I first was told about years ago. I just find it insane how my father left the part out that this movie counts as a acid trip when watching it.
The scene in this movie were Godzilla flies is still better special effects then a lot of the stuff today
this movie is about the only one I specifically remember seeing the commercial for.
I think it was called Godzilla vs The Smog Monster. it was for our local uhf channel
WLVI 56. Saturdays 1-4pm for Creature Double Feature. thanks for this review.
The ghosts are probably “kami”, spirits of Japanese ancestors who are connected to nature after death in the Japanese traditional Shinto religion. Just a guess, though.
I really miss Brandon's Godzilla vs. Gigan. Looked for it all over the internet. Seems like one of those things that nobody ever thought to reupload. Damn shame. It was one of the funnier ones, at least in my opinion. They are all hilarious though. ;p
Hope he does
