At long last, the fan-favorite 2nd entry in the Heisei series will be back on physical media. That’s right, Godzilla Vs. Biollante is coming to The Criterion Collection after months of speculation! Beginning in March 2025, fans can pick this beloved film up in both 4K UHD and Blu-ray editions, with some loaded in bonus features. Previously, Echo Bridge put out the film on DVD and Blu-ray for the first time in 2012, with a reissue for the Blu-ray happening in 2014. The film has since been out of print and has been quite the difficult film to attain for new fans.
Check out the full listing below:
Diving into delirious realms of imagination, this second film of the Godzilla franchise’s 1980s resurgence showcased the towering beast for a new generation of fans. This time, Godzilla’s foe is one of the series’ most wondrously strange kaiju creations: Biollante—a mutant plant genetically engineered from the cells of a rose, a renegade scientist’s dead daughter, and Godzilla itself. With a wild plot encompassing spies, psychic children, and bonkers biotechnology—and some of the coolest special effects in the history of Japanese cinema—Godzilla vs. Biollante stands as a high point in the ever-evolving mythology of the King of the Monsters.
