I believe much of the harsh criticism of this movie is because of the 1977 sixty minute NBC TV special featuring this movie, hosted by John Belushi, this film butchered down to a one hour run time. Belushi, being a comedian by trade, added a sardonic and slapstick element to the broadcast, which made it difficult, if not impossible, for anyone watching this special to take this movie at all seriously.


Wow! I'm not sure I was ever aware of this NBC special, Lee. freak out

I do think how a film fan sees a film for the first time does have a lot to do with forming their opinion and by that, I mean, the picture quality. I've never seen Godzilla vs Megalon in any form other than a poor VHS release and a poor DVD release. With a decent release, here in Region 1 land, this film could very well pick up a lot more fans. thumbs up
