I don't have a definitive answer, but probably not. More than 11 is all I can find. Hope that helps.

The budget was 2 million USD, so there was quite a decent return on their investment. Although of course the film business is not entirely transparent about its finances.

This clue will help.
One actor starred in this film who was in the classic this was a pastiche of. But not the orginal Japanese classic that one was based on.

No - not Godzilla.
