Overview

When a space probe crash-lands on a far-flung Pacific atoll, the craft’s alien stowaways decide to take over their new world one creature at a time. Soon, the parasitic life forms latch onto three indigenous critters—a squid, a crab and a snapping turtle—and transform them into colossal mutant monsters.

Viewing Notes

Crazy to think this was almost Ishiro Honda’s last film as director. Cool that Amazon has this now in the dubbed version. I have the DVD somewhere but I’m enjoying the dubbed versions of these films. Still wish his non-Godzilla work (like this film and his earlier sci-fi flicks) would get better releases now.
