(1965)****
A-bomb tests in the arctic awaken a prehistoric giant turtle. This turtle then
decides it would be fucking awesome to destroy Tokyo. Toshio, a turtle obsessed
boy, tries telling everyone that Gamera isn't bad he's just misunderstood, but
he's a kid so no one is going listen to him anyway.

| Sheeeeet, that is one big ass turtle! |

| Hydie-Ho! |
An
über smart professor that looks an awful lot like Colonel Sanders' Asian twin
thinks he has all the answers but he should probably have just stayed home and
worked on his secret blend of 11 herbs and spices. Perhaps he was thinking of
all the ways he could cook that giant turtle.

| Colonel Sanders explains how his 11 herbs & spices will make turtle meat all the rage. |

Yay, gamera!! i must have seen this way back when. I'm so often on the side of the monsters... Especially when the humans are selfish jerks.
Hilarious review! I've never been a big fan of the giant monster genre (I still haven't seen Godzilla but I heard he's only in the film for 8 minutes), the stuff in-between the monster shots is usually fairly dull. I'm so glad you guys have a passion for this stuff! I'll handle the found footage movies for you...
Gamera! I have this vague idea that I'll attack the Gamera flicks after I've reviewed all the Godzilla flicks (in about 8 years). These cut a little closer to the kiddie formula and aren't as appealing to me.
Nevertheless, way to go Cat! You know I'm down with the spirit of the thing.
Hahaha, he does look like the Asian Col. Sanders!
I'm not sure I ever heard of the Gamera series, though that huge turtle does look familiar.
I feel like all the monsters that were once featured on Creature Double Feature look vaguely familiar. Man, I miss those days!
