==Trivia==
*While the covers of all of Anchor Bay's [[1997]] ''[[Godzilla (franchise)|Godzilla]]'' releases feature an image of [[84Goji|Godzilla 1984]] in the background, the cover image for its ''[[The Return of Godzilla#U.S. release|Godzilla 1985]]'' VHS is actually a still of [[SoshingekiGoji|Godzilla]] from ''[[Destroy All Monsters]]'' colorized green.

Anchor Bay Entertainment, previously Video Treasures and Starmaker Entertainment, was an American home entertainment company founded in 1985. The company was a subsidiary of Starz Inc., and went defunct in 2017. Following the merger between Starz and Lionsgate in 2016, Anchor Bay was folded under Lionsgate's home entertainment division. It released several Godzilla movies on VHS in the 1980's and 90's. All of the films were released in English, with the American-recorded dubs used for Godzilla versus the Sea Monster, Son of Godzilla, and Godzilla 1985
