"Daikaijû Gamera" is a movie that will take you back about ten years, despite being from 1965. It is somewhat less sophisticated in certain aspects compared to the films of Toho Studios at that time, but in others, mainly in terms of special effects, it is more advanced. Gamera is an excellent monster with several amazing abilities that both awe and sometimes entertain. I am quite curious about the next movies featuring this oversized turtle.
