Gamera vs. Jiger is a 1970 Japanese kaiju film directed by Noriaki Yuasa.

Japan is preparing for Expo ’70, to be held in Osaka. Construction of the various buildings and pavilions is well under way. On Wester Island in the Pacific Ocean, a large statue of mysterious origin (called the Devil’s Whistle) is located by scientists. The removal of the statue is hampered first by a tribal member of the Wester Island people, then by the unexpected arrival of Gamera…

  1. Oh hey look, MST3K KS backer here. Who else is from there? Same theme from Gamera vs Guiron. Where's Hirohito Senorita Gamera?

  2. I really love how the scientists in this movie want to dismiss the notions of "dreamers" in a place like "Expo"; where they want the "dreamers" to go. Been LMAO at this since I was "Susan's" age.

  3. What kind of idiots gives this kid's movie from 1970 a "thumb's down"? Was it one of those film critics that "nothing" is ever good enough for?

  4. One of my favorite Gamera films next to the original 3 and the 90s films of course.

  5. Phew 😮‍💨 i’m glad the Osaka castle didn’t tumble down by Jiger. Otherwise, I will not be happy I mean The second Godzilla and Gomora Did tumble down the castle and I wasn’t very happy back then

  6. I remember watching this as a kid back in the 70's it sure brings back memories. This was my favorite Gamera movie!

  7. I just realized the odd resemblance between the scene with baby monster and the baby dragon scene in dragon slayer
