Well. That is bad. Is that from a Godzilla movie?
It's from the first movie Mechagodzilla appeared in. Godzilla vs MechaGodzilla, it was a pretty interesting movie, Godzilla teams up with a giant dog named King Caesar to fight MechaGodzilla in that one.

Yeah my knowledge of Godzilla movies is limited and pretty much from what I can remember when the... Ahem Science Fiction Channel used to show them regularly in the 90's. And then I couldn't tell you if I was watching the 60's versions or the 90's.
I got nothing to say here.

Huh. In the dub I saw of that movie, the dog-like kaiju was an unnamed Holy Monster connected to a random shrine. Or am I thinking of the wrong Godzilla vs Mechagodzilla?

The point of the movie really comes down to Giant Monkey versus Giant Lizard. The human plot is just set dressing.

But yeah the human part of it could have certainly been done better. Afterall, can't have a movie 90 minutes long of nothing but a slug match.
Lets be honest who care for the human plot?

No, you're right, his name just happens to be Caesar. I think the shrine was on Okinawa.
