Zilla okay as a distinct Kaiju. Sadly, it appears Zilla is condemned to obscurity due to his origins as a failed attempt to reimagine and redesign Godzilla. He may be an interesting Kaiju, but he is definitely no Godzilla. He barely resembles him, and has none of the king's mannerisms and traits. The 1998 film proved to be another epic fail by director Roland Emmerich (why anyone would still hire him is beyond me). Zilla's fate is tragic, for the film itself wasn't half-bad. It wasn't great, but it was certainly not the worst Kaiju film ever made. It failed mainly because we were promised Godzilla and they didn't deliver. The film, and by extension Zilla, have become an embarrassment Toho prefers to slip under the rug and pretend it never happened, and unfortunately for Zilla fans, this makes chances for a future appearanCE by Zilla slim.
