Destroy All Monsters, released in Japan as Kaijū Sōshingeki (怪獣総進撃, Kaijū Sōshingeki lit. "Monster Complete Attack"), is a 1968 daikaiju eiga (Monster Movie). The ninth in Toho Studios' Godzilla series, it was directed by Ishiro Honda with special effects by Eiji Tsuburaya and Sadamasa Arikawa. While the plot resembles that of Godzilla vs. Monster Zero (1965), this entry is significant in that it showcases 11 daikaiju, a record for the Godzilla series until Godzilla: Final Wars (2004), and Godzilla: The Series Monster Wars trilogy, which was a paid tribute. Several of these (Gorosaurus, Baragon, Manda, Varan) had only appeared in their debut films at this point; others (Anguirus, Rodan, Mothra, Minilla, Kumonga) returned from previous Godzilla films.
