Gammera the Invincible Reviews

First in a series of seven films featuring Gamera, who ranks with Godzilla and Mothra in the Japanese monster hall of fame. Gamera is a gigantic, fire-spitting turtle created in the aftermath of an atomic bomb explosion. He flies by pulling his tail and spinning (not unlike an outboard motor) and goes around destroying city after city. An international assemblage of governmental and military heads collaborate and conceive of Plan Z to thwart this rampaging creature. The turtle is caught in a rocket and fired off to Mars. Perhaps they should have smuggled the sequel scripts aboard.
