About This Event
QUAD is set to screen the seminal 1954 Japanese science fiction classic, *The Return Of Godzilla*, on Saturday 22 August at 7pm. This atmospheric and impactful film follows a marine biologist and a survivor of a harrowing shipwreck as they delve into the mystery surrounding the monstrous creature's sudden reappearance. Their investigation traces Godzilla's terrifying path of destruction, culminating in a desperate and high-stakes endeavour to halt its rampage before it devastates civilisation. The screening is a key part of QUAD's ongoing Godzilla-A-Go-Go 3! Godzilla-A-Go-Go Raids Again event, offering audiences a chance to witness the original cinematic icon in all his destructive glory. This is a rare opportunity to experience a foundational piece of monster movie history on the big screen, a chilling reminder of the atomic age's anxieties.
The screening follows a reporter and a doctor who encounter a survivor of a shipwreck, who reveals that Godzilla has been resurrected. The Japanese government suppresses this information to avoid panic amid rising political tensions between the United States and the Soviet Union, which escalate after Godzilla destroys a Soviet submarine.
This film is shown as part of the Godzilla-A-Go-Go 3 event, which features a total of four films.
