Godzilla vs. King Ghidorah (ゴジラvsキングギドラ Gojira tai Kingu Gidora?) is a 1991 Japanese science fiction tokusatsu kaiju film featuring Godzilla, produced and distributed by Toho. The film is written and directed by Kazuki Omori and is the 18th film in the Godzilla franchise and the third film in the Heisei series. The film was released in Japan on December 14, 1991 and direct-to-video in North America in 1998.
Although the film's production crew remained largely unchanged from that of Godzilla vs. Biollante, the previous film's financial failure, due to a lack of child viewership and alleged competition with the contemporary Back to the Future franchise, compelled the producers to create a more fantasy-orientated picture with elements of time travel included. It was the first Godzilla film to feature a newly orchestrated score by Akira Ifukube since Terror of Mechagodzilla, and although much more successful than its predecessor, the film became controversial in the United States, due to perceived anti-Americanism stemming from a scene where Godzilla kills several American soldiers.Columbia TriStar Home Entertainment released Godzilla vs. King Ghidorah and Godzilla vs. Mothra on DVD in 1998.
