Monster of the Day #3208

France clearly took it’s giant monster movies very seriously. For instance, they obviously wanted to be certain that prospective ticket buyers wouldn’t think Gorgo was that guy in the green jacket in the foreground.

    Uh…that’s Gamera, isn’t it?

  • The Rev.

    Yes. Yes, it is. I am very amused and now wish to own this poster, along with all those Godzilla ones that have “Frankenstein” on them.

  • Gamera977

    Wasn’t me!!! It was Gorgo, or maybe the Ymir!

    I promise I did not destroy ‘Big Ben’ the last time I was in Paris.

  • Eric Hinkle

    And some fans complain about the inaccuracy of US posters for foreign films. AIP never got as bad as this!

    Police sketch.

  • Man, Gorgo’s put on weight.

    And a shell.

    And some tusks.

    In other news, I now want a Gamera movie where Gamera attacks London…

  • zombiewhacker

    Perfect! We’ll call it Reptilicus!

  • And now I want a movie with Gamera attacking Copenhagen.

    Actually, a plain ordinary Gamera movie would be fine…
