Short description

After the previous Godzilla attack, a miniature arms race ensues to collect his cells. Concerned over Godzilla's possible return, the Japanese government uses the cells to create a new bio-weapon, ANEB (Anti-Nuclear Energy Bacteria). They seeks the aid of geneticist Genshiro Shiragami, who's experiments result in a new mutation.

What's left behind the scenes

This is the seventeenth film about Godzilla and the first to feature Biollante.
Initially, Shiragami was supposed to create Duetillios – a hybrid of a rat and a fish – which Godzilla would quickly defeat. This was replaced with a battle against Super X 2 and Biollante. Scenes of the monster's transformation and its connection to Erika were also added. Various script drafts also featured several alternative endings – Biollante could have died, or killed Godzilla.
After the film's release in Japan, the Toho film company screened it in Hong Kong, dubbed in English. This international version of the film was released in the United States in 1992.
A scene from the film is present in the movie "Mars Attacks!" (1996).
Biollante appeared on screen only once after her first appearance – in a short scene in the film "Godzilla vs. SpaceGodzilla" (1994), she also appears in the games Super Godzilla (1993) and Godzilla: Monster War (1994).
Dr. Shiragami appeared in the game Godzilla: Unleashed (2007).
Actress Megumi Odaka later starred in all subsequent films of the "Heisei era" (1984–1998) about Godzilla.
An unofficial title for the film is "Godzilla vs. Rosdon."
One of the film's episodes features Koguryeo's Demon.
A scene from the film appears in "Mars Attacks!" (1996).
