Description

Still reeling after the hard-fought battle to repel Legion, Japan is now reminded of a deadly foe from the past. The Gyaos have returned, and this time the ornery man-eating birds have not only increased their numbers, but also added a menacing new member-Iris-to their destructive little club. Raised by a young girl whose parents Gamera accidentally squished, the flying, blood-sucking squid monster Iris takes her learned hatred and goes out on the warpath. Dr. Nagamine and Inspector Osaka are reunited to help Gamera in his relentless quest to protect and save the human race. Can Gamera ground the Gyaos? Can the turtle tie up the terrible tentacles? Do the hapless humans and the rowdy reptile have what it takes to thwart the revenge of Iris?

I have the original gamera together on one disk along with attack of thegiant leaches and attack of the blood beast. To get the other films you might have to get them on DVD. There is also suppodedly was a movie made when Gamera fights godzilla but have yet toi find it unless it's that stupid slammy brothers movie. If I here about any new Gamera movies in developement or for release I will inform you.

Terrific Movie: 4.5/5.......2006-02-25

You may hear many monster movies get chopped up by critics, but not this one. Five different critics who exprlained that they despise kaiju flicks gave it over four out of five stars. Yes, the plot is incredibly slow, but Gamera's appearences make it all worth the ride. Two thumbs up!

The King of Kaiju.......2005-12-08

The Gamera trilogy comes to a close in this beautiful movie. Incredible special effects are seen throughout the movie. This movie is considered "kaiju" movies at its best. From the beautiful scene of Iris rising out of the clouds to fly in the night's sky to the quiet burning of the buildings in Tokyo, the movie does a good job at setting the moods. A dream come true. Kaneko's masterpiece that even rivals to be better than the Godzilla movies. From the beginning to the end, a real treat to watch and hear. Stay and listen to the beautiful song at the end credits written by the director Kaneko himself specifically for this movie! Amazing, simply amazing. Word of caution, watch the first two movies of the series first because it is a continual story and it could be hard to fully understand the plot if you haven't seen the other two. This is not a childish movie, this movie is more mature. Gamera is a friend to children no more!

BREATHTAKING!! BEST FILM EVER.......2005-05-20

Their's thousands of words that can describe GAMERA3, none can match G3. Not spectacular, masterpeice, breathtaking, brilliant,best,loveable not any of those words even come close. This film is one that people kaiju fans or not should watch. From the special effects to the music to the human drama even the monsters are belevable and realistec.I even felt compassion towards gamera and ayana.BUY IT NOW YOU DO NOT WANT TO MISS THIS FILM EVER!!

OK but story wise first two were better.......2005-04-06

After seeing the first two I was disappointed with the third installment of Gamera. Yes the special effects are BETTER but the story is really weird and Gamera is hardly in it! He shows up at the end for some brutal fighting. What got me the most was the enemy monster which was built up as really creepy and gross- which is great in an alien-esq sci-fi horror movie but here it just drags on and on. What got me into these movies in the first place was that they rewrote Gamera's back story as a lost bio-weapon from Atlantis which I thought was a fantastic idea but this movie waunders way away from that into the supernatural- however they left plenty of room to pull it all back into place with a fourth movie but it look like this is the last one. Plus bringing back the flying lizards birds from the first movie was a drag as they really weren't all that great the first time around. I bought the 3 in one box set which is a great deal and should be grabbed at all cost and I have enjoyed it thoroughly but the third although better special effects wise is the weaker story wise. WE NEED A FOURTH MOVIE TO MAKE IT ALL GOOD!! GET BACK TO ATLANTIS!
