All New! All Different! A whole New Turtle!

“Thumbs up!”, “The lean, green fighting machine is back – and better than ever!”, “It’s Fights! ‘Gamera’! Action! Giant monster movie fans seeking a big-screen treat will find it here!”

“A zippy new adventure to delight fans…” “… a continual series of knock-out ‘money shots’ that hit at just the right dramatic moments, supplying the necessary ‘oomph’ to push this over from being merely diverting to being outright exhilarating.” “The computer graphics are outstanding… one of the best of all the giant monster films.”

He’s mean, he’s green and he’s back on the screen! That giant fire-breathing turtle you loved as a kid is back with a vengeance in the all new science fiction spectacular that’s already being hailed by critics and fans alike as one of the best monster movies ever, Gamera-Guardian of the Universe!

Viewers of the original series, however, should be forewarned that this all new, multi-million dollar Gamera isn’t aimed at the kiddies! Under the guidance of acclaimed director Shusuke Kaneko (Necro-Nomicom) and screenwriter Kazunori Ito (Ghost in the Shell) the lean, green fighting machine has been reborn with a whole new set of tricks under his 200-foot shell!

With stunning state of the art computer animation and dazzling special effects, Gamera’s grim new rady-for-the-nineties mindset pits the super turtle against both a misguided military and hideous race of man-eating flying reptiles! Aiding Gamera in his fight are a courageous naval officer, an intrepid ornithologist and a beautiful young psychic portrayed by Ayako Fujitani, the daughter of action star Steven Seagal, in her motion picture debut! Don’t miss the most incredible slam-bang, knock-down, monster slug-fest, ever filmed as Gamera turtle-waxes the evil Gyaos through downtown Tokyo in Gamera-Guardian of The Universe!
