a.k.a. Gamera 2: Advent of Legion
Japan, 1996 |
||
|
Starring Toshiyuki Nagashima, Miki Mizuno, Ayako Fujitani. Directed by Shusuke Kaneko. An alien insect with a complicated life-cycle lands in Japan and gives Gamera no end of trouble. In some ways this film is an improvement over Gamera, Guardian of the Universe, with a plot more rooted in the sci-fi films of the 1950s than Japanese fantasy. The final form of Legion makes a good opponent for our favorite turtle. |
