This iconic movie monster made his debut in the 1954 Japanese film “Gojira,” and was inspired by the atomic bombings of Hiroshima and Nagasaki. A metaphor for the atomic age, Godzilla originally rose from the sea to level Tokyo.

Later, Godzilla was recast as a heroic figure that would battle even more destructive creatures and defend mankind. Join http://www.WatchMojo.com as we explore the origins of Godzilla.
