Mothra
Summary of Movie
Mothra was the third major addition to the Toho Studios'
giant-monster stable after Godzilla and Rodan, and the first female beast in the
series. The creature begins Ishiro Honda's entertaining film as a giant larva
worshipped by island tribesmen and guarded by twin sisters (Emi and Yumi Ito)
who stand only a few inches high. Eventually, the larva metamorphoses into a
giant female moth and panic ensues as the creature attempts to regain her stolen
egg and her tiny protectors. The usual pandemonium and destruction is tempered
here by a softer edge which would come to dominate the genre for much of the
decade.
