One Million Years B.C.
This film encapsulates what the 7th art is all about: it has dinosaurs, stop-motion animation and Raquel Welch running around in a fur bikini... Isn't that the essence of cinema? :)

Godzilla Vs. Monster Zero
Probably one of my favorite "Godzilla" flicks, "Monster Zero" is a slick monster mash that features nifty special effects and a pretty good storyline.
After being reawakened from their slumber by an advanced alien civilization, Godzilla and the pterosaur Rodan are shipped to Planet X by means of flying saucers equipped with tractor beams. Once there, they must do battle against the mighty three-headed behemoth King Ghidorah.
Meanwhile, the denizens of Planet X assure us that their intentions are peaceful and that they only mean to use Godzilla and his winged acolyte so as to ward off Ghidorah.
Unfortunatelty, it turns out that they are bent on conquering the Earth, threatening to unleash all three monsters (which are now under their control) upon us.
Can our planet withstand this triple-threat?

GROOVY STUFF TO WATCH FOR:
- The alien invaders' weird-looking outfits;
- Godzilla getting all merry and doing a silly dance to celebrate his apparent victory over King Ghidorah.
