Godzilla

French nuclear tests irradiate an iguana into a giant monster that viciously attacks freighter ships in the Pacific Ocean. A team of experts, including Niko Tatopoulos, conclude that the oversized reptile is the culprit. Before long, the giant lizard is loose in Manhattan as the US military races to destroy the monster before it reproduces and it’s spawn takes over the world in this first American Godzilla film and would be the only American Godzilla film for 16 years until 2014 because it sucked so hard that toho had to bring Godzilla back from the dead. ~ Godzilla storyline
