Sequel to Godzilla vs. Mechagodzilla has the gorilla-like aliens return, who are shown primarily in their human form, once again trying to destroy Japan with their giant mechanical version of Godzilla. But wait! If the return of Mechagodzilla wasn't bad enough, the aliens also unleash Titanosaurus, thanks to a traitorous human scientist. This was the final film directed by Ishirô Honda, who directed the more high minded first film, and this was the also the final film in the original run of Godzilla films where he was the hero (he'd later be portrayed as a hero once again in "Godzilla: Final Wars," which in my opinion is the best of all the Godzilla sequels). But back to "Terror of Mechagodzilla," this is a film clearly aimed at children, but as a fan of Japanese Kaiju movies, I was entertained by this corny rubber suited nonsense.
