Killer Plant 1: Godzilla vs. Biollante

It's kind of fitting that the following clip was posted to Dailymotion 10 years ago, as this is the ten year anniversary of my Friday live blog!  Killer plants are basically the mascot of this blog too! Biollante is one of my all time favorites--she (yes, it's a "she") is a giant mutant rose bush and has to be one of the all time largest killer plant creatures out there (bigger even than Audrey Jr!). And speaking of Little Shop of Horrors, I've noticed that Boillante's design is actually pretty close to the original "Audrey" design from the original 1960 Roger Corman film.

Released in 1989, this Kaiju mash-up certainly has all the trappings of a 80's film, with cheesy computer noises and cheap looking panels with blinking lights....and some real 80's sounding music in parts!  All the monster goodness that a gal like me could possibly want!

Countdown To Halloween Day 17: Odds n Sods

Currently On: Godzilla vs. The Sea Monster (1966) MST3K Edition

Also known as Ebirah, Horror Of The Deep, and released in Japanese translated into English as Godzilla, Ebirah, Mothra:  Big Duel In The South Seas.

Available to stream on Metacafe, but the quality is really bad.  Better versions of full film without the MST3K commentary can be found on YouTube, and honestly the film is so bad it's good in the English dub, it's a bit hard to tell who is making the glib jokes on the MST3K version!
