Ebirah, Horror of the Deep + introduction by curator Alex Davidson (PG)
All Kaiju Attack: Earth SOS!

A group of young men become shipwrecked and face the dangers of a terrifying sea creature and a terrorist group. Can Godzilla – and Mothra – save the day?
In one of the liveliest and most fun Godzilla movies, the king of kaiju battles Ebirah, a terrifying mega-crustacean that kills everything it encounters. Meanwhile, a group of shipwreck survivors encounter a menacing terrorist group called the Red Bamboo, intent on manufacturing nuclear weapons and enslaving the islanders.
With three kaiju embodying nature as a powerful, untameable force and a climactic battle with the future of the ecosystem at stake, Ebirah, Horror of the Deep subtly explores themes of man’s connection with nature. The fights between Ebirah and Godzilla are among the franchise’s most memorable – all this, and a delightful cameo from Mothra, too.
