血を噴くゴジラ
Godzilla that spurts blood

メカゴジラのビームを首に受けて大量出血するゴジラ。激しく血を噴出する仕掛けは?「あれは中野昭慶監督が『血を噴かせよう』って言われて、ナベさん(渡辺忠昭)が「いいよ。穴を開けてホースで噴いてみるか」と仕掛けしました。血を噴く操作は僕もやりました。タンクに血糊を入れて、圧をかけて、ブシューと開けて出してました。ホースはゴジラの体の中に通しました。ホースの先だけがスーツの外に出ています」

Godzilla who receives a beam of MechaGodzilla on his neck and bleeds a lot. What is the mechanism to spout blood violently? “That was directed by Teruyoshi Nakano, who said, ‘Let’s blow blood,’ and Mr. Nabe (Tadaaki Watanabe) said, “Okay. Do you want to make a hole and blow it with a hose?” and I set it up. I also did the blood-squirting operation. I put blood glue in a tank, applied pressure, and opened it with rush and put it out. The hose was passed through Godzilla’s body. Only the tip of the hose is out of the suit. “

Tadaaki Watanabe was Toho’s gunpowder specialist. He was affectionately known as Nabe-san (Source: Sidelong Glances of a Pigeon Kicker).
