Found this on ebay today.... I'm not normally a vhs tape collector (i know there's still a few of you around here), but i would be very tempted to see what this was if only i had a PAL compatible VCR....

It's a greek VHS of Godzilla 1985 (or Godzilla Returns). I'm not sure which version of the movie it is b/c the auction calls it Godzilla Returns, but the box cover is clearly Godzilla 1985 (even though i don't read greek). It is in widescreen too. If it turned out to be Godzilla Returns (which i suspect b/c that's the international version that was released to most parts of the world) then it's no big deal.

BUT if it's a widescreen copy of Godzilla 1985, that would be quite interesting indeed. I guess it's less interesting now that Monsters HD has a widescreen copy of the American edit, which makes it less rare, but it's still not something you see evry day.

Anyway, here's the auction if anyone's interested

It's probably the International version. I think GODZILLA 1985 was only released in the U.S., Australia, the U.K. and Japan (But I could be wrong). Plus the auction/VHS doesn't mention Raymond Burr, and it says it's 103 minutes long.

I own a copy. It is THE RETURN OF GODZILLA with Greek subtitles.
