It may not be as much fun as wearing a bra on your head and creating Kelly LeBrock but it is definitely Weird Science!

Perhaps you desire a more conventional mode.

Has one of Japan's BIGGEST movie stars fallen on hard times? I remember seeing the Toho-made "Godzilla 2000" at one of the Coolidge Marathons. It had a great comic element, good old-school special effects, and was much better than the 1998 Hollywood version in which the big guy attacks New York.

Could he be due for a comeback? Wink

It would appear that poor Ghidorah received the worst of it.  Why the poor chap has fallen to pieces.

Demon Lover Diary is a behind the scenes documentary (sadly, a hack job) about the making of the film:

A previous thread mentioned the costume contest. Bunnyman's downloaded schedule thread got us talking about "Labrynth" again. I'm among those who thought that, while it was in no way science-fiction, "Labrynth" was a good choice for the Marathon even if Bowie's er, uh, role was somewhat padded.

Here's a costume that not just any couple can pull off. Wink
