Attack Of The Monsters (aka Gamera vs. Guiron) description
This fourth entry in the Gamera series found the titanic turtle paralleling the cuddly direction of his competitor Godzilla. When two young, star-gazing children investigate a spaceship that has practically landed in their backyard, they are whisked away to Terra, our undiscovered tenth planet whose two "groovy spacegirls" are all that remain of a once-superior alien civilization. But the boys soon discover that their seemingly friendly hosts have sinister plans in mind for them. Never fear, for Gamera comes to save them, flying through space to battle the spacegirls' guardian Guiron, a giant, rhino-like beast possessing a razor-sharp steel blade for a snout. This movie is truly suited for young children, for older kids, and especially for adults will chortle at the unintentional humor arising from the cheesy effects, underplayed roles, and possibly the worst dubbing job in Japanese monster history. Taken as comedy, adults will find this a real camp gem--when the two boys witness Guiron slice 'n' dice a laser-spewing Gaos, one of them proclaims: "What a monster!" --Bryan Reesman |

This is the ONLY accurate review for Brentwood's ATTACK OF THE MONSTERS 10 MOVIE PACK. (NOT a Gamera review!)
|
The "Gamera" reviews on this page are NOT at all related to the pictured item here: BRENTWOOD's "ATTACK OF THE MONSTERS 10 MOVIE PACK." This is actually a budget-priced collection of ten public domain fright flicks-- there are NO JAPANESE MONSTERS here!
SYNOPSES:
"The Ape Man" - Mad scientist changes himself into a hairy creature, then seeks a cure using human spinal fluid.
"Attack Of The Giant Leeches" - People who live near a swamp are disappearing orbeing found dead with odd wounds on their bodies.
"Creature From The Haunted Sea" - Crook murders some Caribbean islanders and blames their deaths on an imaginary sea monster. Then the real critter appears!
"Eegah" - Teenagers discover a prehistoric caveman, who goes on a rampage.
"The Giant Gila Monster" - The 1950s fad of macro-photography transforms an ordinary lizard into a gargantuan thing that threatens a small Texas town. Or, in the words of this movie's original advertising campaign: "ONLY HELL COULD BREED SUCH AN ENORMOUS BEAST. ONLY GOD COULD DESTROY IT!"
"Indestructible Man" - Lon Chaney Jr. in a modern retelling of the Frankenstein story. An executed criminal is reanimated as a mute killer that seemingly can't be stopped.
"The Killer Shrews" - People on a faraway island are terrorized by giant rodentia.
"The Monster Maker" - Mad scientist injects his enemies with a virus that causes them to become hideously deformed.
"Phantom From 10,000 Leagues" - A lame story about a radioactive rock on the ocean floor that causes a monstrous mutation.
"The Snow Creature" - Himilayan expeditioin captures Bigfoot. The monster escapes while being shipped to Los Angeles.
BRENTWOOD 10 Movie Packs offer a variety of cinematic genres at bargain prices. Video transfers of their "B" movies are pretty decent, as is sound. The manufacturer's hinged boxes house DVDs adequately, but be careful the hinged sections don't pull away from the main spine! They're not that easy to reassemble.
For a more modern collection of creepy movies from BRENTWOOD, their [[ASIN:B0002DB0JU SCARED STIFF 10 MOVIE SET]] will leave you... well, you know!
