Overview

Gamera escapes from his rocket enclosure and makes his way back to Earth as a giant opal from New Guinea is brought back to Japan. The opal is discovered to have been an egg that births a new monster called Barugon. The creature attacks the city of Osaka by emitting a destructive rainbow ray from his back, along with a freezing spray capable of incapacitating Gamera.

How It Feels

Read from this film's synopsis, keywords and credits, and used to work out what it sits beside.

A wildly inventive creature feature where two giant monsters clash across Japanese cities and landscapes with practical charm and escalating spectacle. The mixture of earnest destruction and absurd creature design makes for campy, energetic entertainment.
