Godzilla (1998)
Following the French atomic bomb tests in the South Pacific, a giant, irradiated lizard named Godzilla has been created. Godzilla then travels to New York City during the rainiest week of the season, leaving a path of destruction in its wake. Even with the combined forces of the U.S. military to fight the monster, will it be enough to save the people of New York?
