Description Yup. It's been a while. But this was one of those itches that was overdue for some scratchin'. I'm talking about the unmade film "Godzilla vs. Ghost Godzilla". An interesting concept that was rumored to be the initial 'final' movie of the Heisei series before "...vs. Destoroyah". As redundant the idea of Godzilla going up against another doppleganger would have been, I find aspects of this one interesting. First, it would be Godzilla literally fighting another Godzilla...meaning they would be evenly matched in abilities, perhaps? On top of that, G would also be facing his son, since Little Godzilla would get possesed by the spirit of the '54 beast and grow into a zombie version of his dad. But knowing how the Heisei series usually pans out, I gave Ghost G a weird spectral atomic pulse, that would just devastate everything nearby. Pretty much like Godzilla's atomic burst, but....more ghostly?
The design of Ghost Godzilla (vignette1.wikia.nocookie.net/g… ) hints at 2 things to come in the series: The split skin look is similar to Burning Godzilla's, and I wouldn't be surprised if that was a direct carry over from this concept. The dead white eyes, and spirit possession also calls back to the Godzilla of GMK, although I'm not sure if it is accurately connected. I was careful not to directly mimic either established versions, and keep the '54 Godzilla design as intact as I felt necessary.
Angilas is another kaiju that would constantly have "almost was..." appearances in these films. He wouldn't show up until Final Wars, so I used the concept art (vignette1.wikia.nocookie.net/g… ) combined with the Final wars suit to create this version. I still find the oddity of his split carapace to be something that continues to pop up. I don't quite understand it's purpose. Does his shell open up like a beetle? Or is there some offensive capability about it that we haven't seen?
Since this film would have been a follow-up to "Space Godzilla", I left the design of G the same. Who knows? For this final outing, they may have redesigned him slightly more...but we'll never knowwwwwwooooohhhhhhh!    < (that's a spooky ghost voice).

He looks a little like the creepy looking Shin Godzilla, especially with the eyes. Destroyah was a good villain for the last Hensei Godzilla film.

Very good! Perhaps the closest we'll see Ghost Godzilla is the GMK version of Godzilla (hence he's powered by the souls of all those who died in the Pacific during WWII), and I think if they continued the Heisei series after "vs. Destoroyah" this film would've been made, this time having Junior teaming up with Angilas to fight the spirit of the 1954 version of Godzilla made flesh.

Fun Fact: While this movie was being tossed around, another film with Ghost Godzilla has brought where the spirit would actually help the adult Little G fight off another monster.

I only JUST recently heard of this and wished they had MODE this movie!!!!!

From reading its official (draft) info on Ghost Gojira's abilities here www.tohokingdom.com/cutting_ro… I would say that this Gojira is the mightiest of them all!!! I doubt even that 300 meter tall Anime Godzilla could even survive it!

This imagine is perfect, don't know if you noticed from Tohokingdom but there was a 4th monster in this film called Angurius Hound if you ever wanted to update the image and place it in the picture.

NestieBot [2017-03-24 14:56:22 +0000 UTC]

it is true that they are gonna make it originally
but they scrapped the idea because Director Takao Okawara said that having 3 Films in a row
where Godzilla fighting Monsters that Resemble to him was really too much,
so instead of Ghost Godzilla and Bagan they made Godzilla VS Destoroyah.

anyway the Fan Art looks Great

Very nicely done! Been itching to see more fanart of the Ghost Godzilla design after making the entry over at Toho Kingdom, love the idea of Little G being possessed by the ghost of the original and causing his skin to rip apart due to the quick size increase.

Same here! What a crazy predicament to put Godzilla in! If kills Ghost Godzilla, does he kill his son as well?

Mattoosaurus In reply to Fourgreen [2017-04-03 02:53:55 +0000 UTC]

Perhaps after destroying Ghost Godzilla, the spirit is forced out of Little Godzilla and he's restored to his former state? Or maybe, he stays in the form of an adult Godzilla but the spirit leaves his body. I would assume Godzilla would die by the film's end, and I doubt Toho would leave the Heisei universe without a Godzilla. With Ghost Godzilla destroyed and Godzilla dead, Junior would be left to take his father's place, as with Godzilla vs. Destroyah, which replaced this film.

I wouldn't bother including Baragon in the shot since his role in the film would've been virtually identical to what we've got.

According to this entry (wikizilla.org/wiki/Godzilla_vs… ) he was actually going to be included in both this film and a "Godzilla vs. Godzilla" film. It's unclear what role he would have had, but I made a creative decision to have him aid the hero monster against his revived villain.

"Godzilla vs. Ghost Godzilla" wasn't the first but one of many, MANY storylines Toho went through before settling on the "vs. Destroyer" concept (which, itself went through many story revisions before it became what it is now). There was other concepts before it like "Godzilla vs. Giant Monster Varan", "Godzilla vs. Bagan", and even one where Godzilla Jr. was sent back in time to fight the '54 Godzilla!

Also in "Godzilla vs. Destroyer", they used the same costume from "Spacegodzilla", but modified it with the lights and what have you to create the burning effect, so this is wholly appropriate.

Lets not forget the "Carbon Monoxide" gas used for it too, which as a fatal flaw would often drive the suit actor (Kenpachiro Satsuma) o succumb to numerous passouts, even came close to dying from lack of oxygen. There were times where in interviews where he gets questioned on that suit and he would go "Never again"

Take my word or don't. *shrugs* Not everything that exists or happened can be found on the internet. Want to think "Godzilla vs. Ghost Godzilla" was the only thing Toho came up with before "Destroyer"? Have at it.

Though, the ending of "Godzilla vs. Giant Monster Varan" wound up being re-purposed in "Godzilla: Final Wars", but to far lesser effectiveness ("Varan" had to do with the end of the century and featured a clock turning over superimposed over Godzilla and Little Godzilla swimming off into the horizon. GFW just repackaged the basic idea).
