Monster X Strikes Back

Friday, June 19 - Sunday, June 28, 2009

The 6/19 show will be followed by a special presentation from Tokyo Shock about their new kaiju movie, DEATH KAPPA. More giant monster love than any single human can stand, director Minoru Kawasaki (EXECUTIVE KOALA, CALAMARI WRESTLER) turns in this homage to the stupidest giant monster to ever stalk the 60’s and the 70’s: Guilala, the giant space chicken. Watch in Stupid-Vision as the world’s leaders take on Guilala in a battle to the death. Preceded by GEHARA: THE LONG AND DARK-HAIRED MONSTER, a priceless 17 minute short film that deftly combines J-horror with Kaiju films.
