WAR OF THE MONSTERS took up where GAMMERA THE INVINCIBLE left off, with the huge space capsule containing the tremendous terrapin getting slammed by a passing meteor and freeing the colossal creature of fire. The airborne turtle returned in RETURN OF THE GIANT MONSTERS, ATTACK OF THE MONSTERS, DESTROY ALL PLANETS, GAMERA VS. MONSTER X, and GAMERA VS. ZIGRA. Almost ten years later, Gamera returned in GAMERA: SUPER MONSTER (1980) and has been back ever since. I’m still waiting for GAMERA VS. GODZILLA.
I would like to see Gamera vs Godzilla too, however, Gamera was owned by Daiei originally but, was bought by Kadokawa which asked Toho who owns Godzilla, if they wanted to have the 2 in a movie together but, Toho declined the offer. Who knows anything is possible, and hopefully we will get to see that movie one day. There's a fan edited 1972, 9:20-minute movie on RUclips, called: Godzilla vs Gamera-The Great Battle, which is pretty impressive.
What I've always wanted to know is how do the Japanese monster movies come up with such good SOUND EFFECTS for the monsters. Like how do they make Gamera's familiar sound. The same with Godzilla and Ghidrah. Where do the sounds from Ghidorah come from. Compared to American monster movies of the time, the Japanese led the way.
Godzilla's "roar" was a leather glove pulled across cello string and pretty sure Gamera's "roar" was a mixture of animal and instrument sounds. I think an elephant and a trumpet? Pretty sure Ghidorah's sound came from an electric organ. Happy New Year!
This was the first time we ever saw Gamera in color and dare I say it, when you put it in this context, Gamera actually looks better in color than he does in B&W. Imagine what would’ve happened if Gamera’s debut film was shot in color like this movie rather than the B&W we ended up with.
The best Gamera movie ever
this movie is a masterpiece of all the Showa gamera films because it doesn’t have annoying kids in it
So true bestie
Those monsters were SO cute!
The only Gamera film without a Kenny.
Poùrrai vous le traduit en français
Makes it the best Showa Gamera film.
Thank goodness!
And that's part of why it's the best!
thanks for sharing.
Loved this movie when I was a kid
I also love how they pronounced Gamera's name in this. GA-Mera
I cosplayed as Barugon at G-Fest and he has a strong cult following.
Did you make your Barugon costume?
@@ericechols6056 yes I made it.
@@jeremykrause153Wow, that's great!!! Can I view pics., of your costume on cosplay or internet?
@@ericechols6056 yeah if you watch the g fest costume parade from 2022 I’m in there. ;)
Kyoko Enami is really beautiful ❤️!

I'm still waiting for Gamera vs. Godzilla also. I wonder if we'll ever see it.
i think were all still waiting for gamera vs godzilla

I think Godzilla's a bit scared to fight Gamera. He also wants more cities to destroy for payment.
These guys were so good at the scale models needed to make this movie 🎥
Yes, but the Barugon costume looked a little too tight.
First saw this on the Channel 7 4:30 movie. Good old days
Channel 9 WOR in the New York City market.
Good ol' days 😃
Creature Double Feature, Channel 56. Followed by This Week in Baseball and a FREE Red Sox game on Channel 38.
@@davidlafleche1142 Channel 38 (Boston) was part of my first cable package in the late 70s.
I used to watch "The Movie Loft."
this movie is cool

cant remember exactly but Godzilla's roar was done with a musical instrument, think it was a chello or a stand up bass, then they tweaked it a bit

thanks vern! i thought it was something like that as you mentioned, you have a happy NY's to!@@vernalc2449
Love Gamera
The thing about Barugon that I found most disturbing is those sideways eyelids.
This was the first time we ever saw Gamera in color and dare I say it, when you put it in this context, Gamera actually looks better in color than he does in B&W. Imagine what would’ve happened if Gamera’s debut film was shot in color like this movie rather than the B&W we ended up with.
I thought the same about "THEM!"
Reason for Showa Barugon is weak at fresh water is he is salt water themed creature. (Like marine fish can't live in fresh water)
What happened to the sound???
This video somehow got a Copyright infringement unfortunately.
Definitely classic
I've never seen a country with so many monsters.
Best showa Gamera
[10/25/24] This is my third time watching this movie.
does every building a giant monster steps on contain explosives
I would be angry too
If I had Fire
Coming out my rear end
This was greeeeaaaaattt! The old Gamera is sooooo much better that the new one. Thank you for this great film!
gamara is 👑!❤
1:23:43
Vintage classic..
My favorite Gamera film before the series became kiddie matinee crud.
Holy chit 💩 Rainbow 🌈 Power…..
Gamera cut off the sounds
😅
Unfortunately this video received a copyright infringement. Dang copyright claims!
Foi o primeiro super-herói que eu conheci
man, they cant catch a break...finally seal him up and shoot him to space only to hit a comet and come back stronger...
😅 thanks😊
Gamera will fight battle Barugon defeat with cause of death of three men!
Ohhhhhhhhhhhh my goodness
I think that was just a man in a turtle suit. I don't think they cast the real Gamera.
Pieces of art.Origami movie theatre or Kabuchi
... mount giluwe papua new guinea ... diamonds { jacuzzi diamonds ice methyl-alcohol } ...
😂 muito top este filme antigo da gamera
This movie has no sound..😮
now how could a monster know that missiles where going to be fired at him from miles away......he got ESP???
[7/5/24] This is my second time watching this movie.
👽
Were Rainbows gay in 1966?
No
"Rainbows" still aren't. They're an inanimate object.
Nope since they are refracted light.
Oh no, Gamera has run out of propane!!!
Dub in American is terrible. Much better in Japanese sub in English.
Anyway this movie is cool, just sometimes goes to slow
where is Gozilla !!!????
Prefer godzilla more action and destruction of humans
KOTO musical instrument solo Say too much about japanesse soul
