Viewing Notes

Last and final of the Showa era films, and really in name only because it uses a large portion of the fight sequences from all the other Gamera films, intertwined with a goofy story. Also “borrows” a bit from STAR WARS in the most obvious way.

And holy shit, I had no idea I’d even seen this before.
