Viewing Notes
A kind of supercut of practically every Showa-era Gamera movie’s battle scenes, spiced in with some odd animation (including a completely incongruous scene from Galaxy Express, WTF!) and an opening scene directly ripped off from Star Wars.
The battles are fun but the rest of ridiculous. It did remind me however that I really haven’t seen many Showa-era Gamera movies and that I probably need to correct that.
