Cozilla? The weirdest Godzilla movie ever made is finally getting a Blu-ray release

Of the 38 Godzilla films produced over the 72 years since the iconic oversized lizard was first introduced, none match the acid-fueled absurdity of Cozzilla. The 1977 Italian re-edit of Godzilla, King of the Monsters! (itself derived from 1954’s Godzilla) was “directed” by Luigi Cozzi and is still widely considered one of (if not the) strangest Godzilla releases ever put to film. Fortunately, it’s finally getting the long-overdue Showa-era Blu-ray treatment after being largely confined to VHS bootlegs and being notably absent from the Criterion Collection’s 2019 box set.
