378. Gojira Mainasu Wan (Godzilla Minus One) (#---)

The 250

Hosted by Andrew Quinn and Darren Mooney, and this week with special guests Jess Dunne and Richard Drumm, The 250 is a weekly trip through some of the best (and worst) movies ever made, as voted for by Internet Movie Database Users. New episodes are released Saturdays at 6pm GMT. This week, Takashi Yamazaki's Godzilla Minus One. Unable to follow through on his assignment, kamikaze pilot Kōichi Shikishima returns to the base on Odo island. However, his trip is interrupted by a strange and mysterious beast that the islanders call "Gojira." Kōichi survives the experience and returns to postwar Tokyo, to find a city and nation in ruins. However, it quickly becomes clear that Godzilla is not finished with Kōichi - or Japan - yet. At time of recording, it was not ranked on the list of the best movies of all time on the Internet Movie Database.
