This stupid movie is perfect for the terminally distracted during Lockdown.

Two annoying little kids are kidnapped by aliens who want to gain knowledge by eating their brains.  Gamera, the giant fire-breathing turtle, comes to their rescue.  He must first defeat Guiron, a giant ninja shark.

This is just exactly as pitiful as it sounds.

This is the one I’ve seen a few times. I saw this when I was a kid and even then I knew it was one of the silliest movies ever made. I’m more familiar with the alternate title “Attack of the Monsters.” And I can never remember the name of Gamera’s foes. Gaos? Zigra? Which is which? One is a weird Space Bat. One is a squid? But which is which? This one – Guion? – was Pocketknife Face when I was a kid.
