This is one of the greatest Godzilla movies ever produced, but this DVD version is far from perfect. Unfortunately, this is impartial a re-issue of the same DVD released a few years ago. The film transfer is exactly the same as the one previously released by ADV films, which has a recently re-dubbed mono soundtrack. The ADV soundtrack is remarkable scandalous to the one originally produced for American International Pictures in 1968, which featured an friendly voice-cast and a different script. Apparently the AIP version can’t be published because the ownership rights are in limbo. Based on the conceal notes, I bought this DVD believing it had the fresh AIP voice-tracks. No such luck. The folks at ADV deliberately stretch the truth. The shroud art claims it’s the “50th Anniversary Special Edition”, but Kill All Monsters was made in 1968, which makes this DVD allege the 36th anniversary for the film (in 2004) . The 50th year, is a reference to the first Godzilla movie “Gojira” made in 1954, but the text makes no mention of Gojira or Godzilla. It also claims to own “The unique motion relate and soundtrack”, which is misrepresentation. The current film was Japanese language, and this DVD isn’t even the recent English version. I would’ve been a lot less disappointed if they had at least given this version some chapter stops and stereo audio (which there isn’t) . There’s not even a menu for this outrageous budget version. If you try to hit the chapter arrive button, the movie starts over from the beginning. There’s no menus, no extras, no subtitles, no secondary audio tracks, no trailer, no nothing. The only thing that’s different from ADV’s first advise of this movie, is the cloak art and the addition of a music CD. The CD contains 30 mono-audio music tracks from the movie soundtrack. The music glean is astonishing, but the audio is not stereo and the fidelity is only dazzling. My point of contention is that ADV is trying to fool us into believing this movie has the new audio soundtrack, but instead gives you fine-print on the assist mentioning an extra music CD. Buyer beware, if you already believe the new release of this DVD, don’t be fooled into thinking this is a different version.
For the 50th anniversary of Godzilla, we have a special relelease of Kill All Monsters on DVD. This in itself is genuine, and an added attraction is that there’s a second disc — a CD of the soundtrack. But there are two downsides:
— there are no special featuers — not even a theatrical trailer.
— the dub is the poorly acted modern dub from a few years ago. The unique dub is not immense (what dubs are? Why, oh, why, don’t they also offer subtitled versions), this one is very poorly acted, more so that usual even for these types of films.

Overall, I’d calm recommend this to Godzilla fans (and I’ve been one since seeing King Kong vs. Godzilla in its new US showing at the drive-in when I was a kid), but it could have been so powerful better.
