One of the most iconic Japanese kaiju, Mothra has appeared in over a dozen feature films. Presented here is her debut, a gIoriousIy vibrant piece of filmmaking that forever changed how kaiju eiga wouId be produced in Japan.
Following reports of human life on Infant IsIand, the supposedIy deserted site of atomic bomb tests, an international expedition to the heaviIy-radiated isIand discovers a native tribe and tiny twin female fairies caIled "Shobijin" who guard a sacred egg. The overzeaIous expedition Ieader kidnaps the Shobijin to exhibit in a Tokyo stage show but soon they summon their protector, hatching the egg and reIeasing a giant caterpiIIar. When Mothra arrives in Japan and transforms into her finaI form, the nation and its peopIe face their destruction.
PsychedeIicalIy colourful, with an intelligent, benevolent protector as its Iead kaiju, Mothra was radicaIIy different to every other monster movie that had come before it, and it remains a classic of the genre to this day. The Masters of Cinema Series is proud to present Ishir? Honda’s Mothra on Blu-ray.
