All Monsters Attack (1969) - full transcript
Ichiro is a highly imaginative, but lonely, boy growing up in urban Tokyo. Every day he comes home to the empty apartment he shares with his railroad worker father and his restaurant hostess mother. His only friends are a toy maker name Shinpei Inami and a little girl named Sachicko. The only other kids that are around is a gang of kids led by a bully named Gabara. To escape his loneliness, Ichiro imagines that he is on Monster Island where he befriends Minya, the son of Godzilla. It is through his daydreams that he watches Godzilla and Minya fight other monsters, including one also named Gabara who is just as bad a bully as the one that is tormenting Ichiro. It is through these daydreams that he learns that it is okay to fight back and face his fears. These lessons also help him to outwit a couple of bumbling bank robbers as well as finally have the guts to stand up to Gabara and his gang.
NARRATOR: There are
one hundred billion
fixed stars in galactic space.
There are also three
billion nebula in macrocosm.
And each one is as
big as galactic space.
Old stars explode
and scatter as gas,
and new stars are
formed from the gas.
What secrets are hidden
in these countless stars?
A star is in trouble.
[MUSIC PLAYING]
NARRATOR: All astronomical
observatories catch waves.
Irregular waves that might have
been sent from outer space.
[MUSIC PLAYING]
[STATIC AND WHISTLES FROM
TRANSMITTER]
-Gentlemen, the
waves have stopped,
but we don't know yes if they
are messages from outer space.
Any questions?
-Dr. Shiga, the
same electric waves
were picked up in England.
Were they the same impulses,
do you think, in your opinion?
-Ah, yes.
Those electric
waves, in my opinion,
are much different than the
ones we are now getting.
They came from
beyond our galaxy.
These impulses are much nearer.
-Could these be humans--
do you suppose--
now living on this planet?
-It's too early to
really be certain.
Will you start this?
The moon lacks sufficient
moisture and air.
Therefore, it is impossible
to sustain any life
form on the moon as you know it.
On Mars right there, there
are no rivers at all.
It's arid.
And now, Venus-- it
has a temperature
of several hundred
degrees centigrade.
We come now to Jupiter.
Frozen ammonia
covers it entirely--
not breathable to us.
Saturn-- the same, also no air.
The conclusion-- no advanced
vertebrates exist there.
-If that's so, what is
the meaning of the waves,
would you say?
-Well let's see.
Let's assume that
they came to us
from Proxima Centauri,
the star closest to Earth.
As you know, we have today the
spaceship we call the Apollo.
And if we were to
go to Centauri,
do you know how long
it would take us?
[SEVERAL RESPONSES FROM CROWD]
-One million years.
So you see what it means.
Yes.
Even though we received an
invitation from space man.
Unless-- unless they pay
us a visit, I'm afraid
we'll never be able
to get together.
[LAUGHTER]
-Are there men in space, truly?
-Sure there are.
Or Otherwise, those waves
from space wouldn't have come.
-Tom!
Tom!
Come here quick.
I see something funny.
-Yeah?
-Yeah?
-Look.
-What is it?
Can you tell?
-Hmm.
I know what it is.
It's a space ship.
-Yeah?
It's true.
That's keen.
-Now me.
Let me look.
I want to see.
-You're too young.
I've got to watch.
GIRL: Let me look!
-All right.
-I'm sure it's a space ship.
-Yeah.
-I can't see anything.
-It came down in the
woods across the river.
Akio, let's go find it.
-OK, let's go.
-Wait!
Take me too.
AKIO: I bet it's in the
vacant lot where we play.
-Mm-hmm.
MOTHER: Akio?
Akio?
-Ah, it's too late, I guess.
Mother will scold us again.
-Yeah, it's too late.
-Well, well, I thought
you'd all be studying.
I suppose that you've
been stargazing.
AKIO: Yes.
But honestly, we
saw a space ship.
-But you must have imagined it.
It isn't good for
children to stay up late.
Your mother wouldn't
approve either.
You must admit it, Tom.
-But you see, the
reason we watch
the stars every night is that--
-Of course, I know the reason.
You want to discover new
stars, isn't that it?
Akio wants to name
a star after him,
and you, Tom, want a
star named after you.
-That's not the only reason.
See what it says?
Signals coming from out
of the stars constantly.
So if we're receiving
signals systematically,
it could mean there
are space creatures.
-We're trying to discover the
star that's sending the signal.
-So that's the reason
we all stay up.
It could be they are
quite intelligent.
Just think-- no more
wars on their planet
and no more traffic accidents.
-Just some more of
your imagination.
There is no such star.
Now behave, or I'll take
away your telescope.
-Gee, grown ups spoil a dream.
-Hm.
-All right, no more foolishness.
Go to bed now.
-All right.
-At dawn?
[DOOR OPENS]
-OK.
[DOOR SHUTS]
[MUSIC PLAYING]
[MAN GRUNTING]
-Stop.
Stop.
-What is it?
A space man?
-Idiot.
It's worse than a space man.
[MAN CONTINUES GRUNTING]
[SIGHS]
-I'll attend to it.
-OK.
-Oh well, so there it is, huh?
Hey!
Hold on!
Just a second.
Hold it!
Hold it!
What's this?
-A dart.
KONDO: You come back, too.
Hmm?
-Good day, Kondo.
-Idiot.
Don't say Kondo.
Say good day, officer.
-It's all right, young lady.
My name is Kondo.
But see here, two of you kids
shouldn't ride on one bike.
-I'm sorry, but I'm in a hurry.
-You're in a hurry?
This time of day?
Ah-ha.
It means you kids
are up to mischief.
I understand.
-No, we aren't.
We're out here looking
for a space ship.
-Huh.
You are?
-Mm-hmm.
-Oh, you're joking.
-No, we saw the ship land here.
-It's true.
It came down last night.
-I see.
I see.
I see.
Yes, but if you're
naughty, you know
what I'm going to do with
you two mischief makers?
I'm going to shave your heads.
-Yee!
-Yes, it's true.
Here, don't forget this.
Go ahead.
But don't ride there.
-All right.
-Walk.
-I think it's beyond this hill.
-Let's climb from here.
-Wait for me, Akio.
-Hurry.
[GASPING]
-It's space men.
[SIGHS OF RELIEF]
-A little hair is all it is.
GIRL: Oh, I want it.
Let's catch it.
-Come on, you idiot.
He's much too quick.
You can't.
All right, let's go.
-Yeah.
[GASPS]
-Akio!
Brother!
-What is it?
[GASPS]
-The ship, it is there.
We were right.
-Yeah, come on.
-It's great.
-Are there space men on it?
-There could be inside.
Akio, let's go in.
-Sure.
-No, I'm scared.
I don't want to go in.
-Scaredy cat.
The space men won't hurt you.
If they flew here,
they're civilized.
You're dumb.
-Yo, anyone there?
-Hello?
-You're the idiots.
You think the space men will
understand what you say?
Really?
Are you kidding?
-They'll understand.
-I guess the crew's out.
-It looks like it, all right.
-This is great.
Hey, it's running.
Imagine travelling
on this thing.
Great, huh?
It would be keen.
Ready standby for
immediate countdown.
Crew, ready for lift-off.
-OK.
[GASPS]
-Ready for countdown.
-Countdown beginning.
Ten, nine, eight, seven, six,
five, four, three, two, one,
zero.
-Akio!
Brother!
Akio?
Brother!
-Hey, it's moving.
-Yeah, it is.
-Stop it, then.
-Akio, you get out of there.
Or else later on,
you'll get a scolding.
You're gonna get a
good scolding and not
gonna eat dinner at all.
-Stop it.
Can't it be controlled?
-It won't stop now, I guess,
until the fuel runs out.
-You operated the controls,
though, didn't you?
-Of course, I did.
But don't forget,
you ordered me to.
Look there.
-We're in space already.
Funny, there's no
weightlessness in here.
-This ship's out of
the ordinary, isn't it?
-Mm-hmm.
Hey, look up there.
Oh, they're on our course.
-A meteor!
We'll be hit.
-It's terrible.
It's heading right for us.
Change our course.
-Tom, I can't.
The controls aren't right.
-We're gonna be hit then.
-It's Gamera.
Good for you, Gamera.
-Help us, Gamera.
-Nice going.
-Thanks a heap.
-Gamera, thanks a lot.
-Gamera's racing us.
Who do you think will win?
-I'm not scared now.
We're in good hands.
-Yeah.
Gamera's always been
the children's friend.
-Mm-hmm.
He's really speeding up.
Mach 3, I think.
-No, it's kind of
deceptive out there.
See Gamera's great jets?
Mach 33 is what I would say.
-Really?
I didn't realize it.
-At mach 60, he'd leave the
solar system, I bet you.
-Let's go, Gamera.
[MUSIC PLAYING]
-Gamera, what happened?
-Gamera!
Gamera!
Gamera, what's the matter?
Gamera!
You know what I think?
Maybe he's trying to stop us.
-I don't think he's
coming with us.
-Why?
-Look at that speedometer.
The lights are going faster.
-Then our speed's
increasing, isn't it?
-It's remote control.
-Akio, Gamera's jet propulsion.
-Gamera!
Keep at it.
-Gamera!
Akio, what do we do?
-I don't know,
because the ship's
going faster every second.
-Gamera!
Gamera?
-Can't you hear us?
-Mother!
Oh, Mother!
-My, my, such a loud voice,
and where were you, young lady?
-It's awful.
-Has Akio teased you again?
-No, you don't understand.
They went away on a space ship.
-Nonsense, Tomoko.
You are just as
silly as they are.
-Oh, it is true.
Because we found
the ship, all right.
And then they decided to
go in it, and it lit up.
-It's plain to see.
Your brother, Akio,
is up to something.
-Mother, tell me.
Don't you believe in space ships
or in space creatures at all?
-No, I don't.
-But the paper said they do.
Lots of people, they said,
believe in flying saucers.
-Made-up stories.
-But they were right.
-I said that's all.
Now, I want you to
be good and study.
Or you won't get
into a good school.
-I'm in trouble.
How can I make her understand?
Poor boys.
I wonder where they are now.
[WIND HOWLING]
-Tom, Tom!
Wake up.
We've landed.
-Akio, we're really safe then?
Are you all right?
-I'm OK.
-Look there.
The hatch is clear.
-The air here is like ours, so
we don't need any space suits.
-Are we back on earth?
Do you think?
-Maybe.
Let's go out and look.
-Akio, we're not on Earth.
-That's obvious, I'd say.
-It's Mars or Venus.
-No, they don't have any air.
So I guess this
is a distant star.
-Thank goodness is has air.
-You know, there are stars in
the galaxy just like Earth.
So I suppose we found ourselves
a new star-- the first ones
on it.
-Wait a minute.
Don't forget we were brought
here b by remote control.
Let's be careful.
[EXPLOSION]
-Ah, it was Gyaos.
-Well the monster
looks like Gyaos.
Still, he's a different color.
-An out-of-galaxy Gyaos.
-We're cornered.
-You said it.
-Look there.
-Hey, the water's
running backwards.
You see that?
[SCREECHES]
[SCREECHES]
[ROARS]
-I think he's going
to return to his home.
-Where'd this come from?
Uh oh-- hurry, the
opposite switch!
-Jump off.
-Oh, see?
The water's returning.
-What's going on?
-I don't know.
But from what I've
seen, I'll bet
we're on a highly
civilized star.
-Moving instantly, that's great.
-Yes.
What do you say we
investigate some more?
-Yeah, let's.
-Hey, it's great.
[VOICES ECHOING]
-Did you hear that sound?
-Somebody's here, I bet.
Call.
-Hello?
Answer!
Are you there?
Is anyone here?
-Idiot.
They don't understand
our language.
That's the reason
they don't answer.
-Akio, what if goblins come out?
Then what do we do?
-Don't you worry.
-Akio, Akio!
This is scary!
-Jump down then.
What are you afraid of?
-Did you see?
It's a moving corridor.
-Oh, yeah?
Let's get on.
-OK.
[SPEAKING ALIEN LANGUAGE]
-It's wonderful.
This must be the control center.
-Hmm.
-Hello?
Where are we now?
Can't you tell us your identity?
[SPEAKING ALIEN LANGUAGE]
-You see?
I explained they'd
understand the language.
-Greetings.
We waited for you.
-Then you do understand
our Earth language.
-Of course.
This ultra-speaking
machine translates
telepathically all languages.
-Oh, boy!
Science has advanced here
much more than on Earth.
-Mm-hmm.
Miss, can you tell me
which star this is?
-And can you tell us the
distance to the Earth?
-The star we are
on, we call Terra.
And the star is
exactly like the Earth
and has the same atmosphere.
Our star is situated exactly
on the other side of the sun
from your Earth.
-I understand.
Terra and the Earth
are twin planets, then.
-Why didn't we
know it was there?
-You see?
It's simple.
The Earth and Terra
are on a line,
but with the sun always staying
between us, you can't see them.
-Akio, it's a great discovery.
-Mmm.
The Earth and Venus, Jupiter.
Then there's Uranus,
Saturn, and then
Mercury, Mars,
Pluto, and Neptune.
That makes nine planets,
and Terra is the tenth.
-You're right.
[MONSTER ROARS]
-It's Gyaos again.
-Barbella, it's a nuisance.
Open the pit.
-Yes.
-Young lady, excuse me.
Barbella's your name?
-Yes.
Its translation is
"sweet as a little bird."
-And my name is Florbella.
It means "pretty as a flower."
-Where are the
other people here?
-Ah, Akio, see the water again?
It's running
backwards like before.
It's against the law of gravity.
-We control the laws of nature
here through our science.
-Oh.
You're quite superior, because
I looked in my telescope
every single night.
You see, I was searching
for a planet like this.
I knew somewhere, there should
be a star-- highly intelligent,
that had no wars or accidents.
[MONSTER ROARS]
-It's that monster again.
-This is our watchdog.
He's called Guiron, and we
can control his actions.
Don't worry.
-Gyaos is running.
-I don't understand.
Why do you have such
monsters anyway?
You're so advanced, and all.
-You are right.
Ours was truly an
advanced society.
We got to the point where we
control the laws of nature
by advanced electronics.
But then, a mixed up
computer brought calamity.
We found, to our
regret, that it made
uncontrollable monsters as well.
-[BOTH] Gee.
-We attempted to send
out some signals,
thinking someone would hear us.
There was no answer, though.
-Oh, gosh.
You see?
Those were the waves
reported by our Dr. Shiga.
-You see, those who were still
alive got on a big space ship,
hoping to fine another star.
But it failed.
Now, just two of
us are left alone.
Then we heard a call.
Someone was on a small ship
we sent out to probe the area.
And that's how you
two were brought here.
-I see.
-We've since been
confined to the base here.
We can't go out.
-Observe out there.
It's getting colder and
colder, completely bound
in by glaciers in
just five hours.
-Barbella.
What you are looking at now
used to be a great city.
That was long ago.
It's the home of monsters now.
-Well then, can't we go
back to Earth at once?
You'll be welcome there.
-Thank you.
We'll have the flying
saucer checked,
so we can make the trip
before we're blocked in.
-Aren't we lucky?
-Mm.
-Gee, if Gamera
were only here now.
-Don't worry.
I'm sure Gamera's
looking for us.
-Gamera?
[MUSIC PLAYING]
[ROARS]
-This is the lounge.
It's just above
the control center.
Now, you rest here until
we can repair the ship.
-[BOTH] Thanks.
-This ship only
holds two, you know.
So what are we
going to do with--
-I realize that.
There's time to
make adjustments.
I'll run tests.
I'll check with our scanner to
see if the boys are poisonous.
If not, the boys will
become our rations.
You make the final
check on the ship.
-I'm hungry.
-You think we're
really gonna go home?
-Don't worry.
The girls said we'd
go home just as
soon as the space
ship is repaired.
-Yeah, and just think
how excited they'll
get on earth, how
groovy the girls are.
They'll be a big hit down there.
Right, Akio?
Akio, what is it?
Hmm.
That's strange.
-Now boy, listen.
You are to answer all
questions that are asked you.
AKIO (VOICEOVER): Yes.
-Pay attention.
Let your mind imagine what
it would most like now.
Think.
Try to concentrate.
Are you thinking?
What's the matter?
Go on.
Complete the thought.
I see.
Right away.
Now, will you
answer my questions
until the food is ready?
AKIO (VOICEOVER): Yes.
-Are you in pain?
AKIO (VOICEOVER): No.
It feels nice.
-I see.
What?
-Akio.
What is it, Akio?
Akio, what's the matter?
Akio.
Akio.
Answer me, Akio.
FLORBELLA: This is a nuisance.
All right.
Now, concentrate again.
You know Gyaos.
Are there many
monsters on Earth?
AKIO (VOICEOVER): Not now.
Gamera got them all.
-Gamera?
Is that a creature?
This creature's looking
for you, you said.
Think.
Remember it.
Try.
AKIO (VOICEOVER): Gamera's
the friend of children.
FLORBELLA: The
friend of children?
AKIO (VOICEOVER): Yes.
He appears when we need him.
He saved a child
in Hokkaido once.
He knocked Gyaos out when
Gyaos tried to eat the child.
He saved two boys, too, when
Viras attacked the Earth.
-You know?
That's strange.
I'm sure I remember
you stopped moving.
-I had a feeling I at a
lot of Mother's donuts.
-Your Mother sure makes
donuts real great.
I'm starving-- just
the thought of it.
-I'm now hungry, just thirsty.
-The space ship?
-All checked.
We can leave whenever
you're ready.
-Good, at last.
Here.
Prepare all the foods
you see on these cards.
Use sleeping powder.
-Sleeping?
-Right.
And when they're unconscious,
under the effects
of our powder, we'll
gobble their brains raw.
-Eat their brains?
-All the knowledge that
has been handed down
is stored now in their
complicated brain cells.
And so if we eat their
brains, that knowledge
will help us to adapt.
We can accomplish it,
just as our bacteria
do here, to become
higher animals.
-I understand.
-Yes.
-Hello, my dear.
I just came for my son.
[CAR DOOR OPENS]
-Elsa!
How nice.
[CAR DOOR SHUTS]
-Thank you for keeping Tom.
-No trouble at all.
However, Tom and Akio
are still not back.
I don't understand it at all.
-Oh?
Where did they go?
I wonder if Tomoko
knows where they went.
-Else, there's no use
asking my daughter anything.
I'm sure the boys have
told her not to tell.
She says they're lost in space.
-In space?
-Yes.
Tom wants to stay
with us longer.
He must have run away,
knowing you were coming.
[LAUGHTER]
-I'm sure he did.
-Well, Tom can stay
with us a few days more.
-You're very kind.
Thank you.
I'm much obliged.
I'll see you later.
-As long as you're here,
can't you stay for tea?
-I'd like to, but I can't today.
Thank you.
-I understand.
-Thank you, again,
for your trouble.
-Take care.
-Oh, Auntie.
-Why, Tomoko.
-They are lost in space.
It's true.
Akio and your Tom did go.
-What really happened?
Can you take us there?
-Mm-hmm.
Kondo!
Kondo, it's awful!
Hurry, hurry!
-What's the matter?
KONDO: Well, they
left their bikes here.
TOMOKO: Here.
This is where the
space ship was.
-Tomoko, the other day,
there was an announcement
by the aerospace
bureau, and I'm going
to repeat exactly
what they said.
The flying saucer
scare was simply
an illusion or made-up story.
TOMOKO: No, it's true.
It is.
I saw it with my own eyes.
-Darling, listen.
The Apollo crew said there
are no living things out
there at all.
That our Earth is the
only oasis there is.
There are no living
things elsewhere.
There are no living
things in space.
-But the boys really
did get on a saucer.
And when they did, it took off.
-No, dear.
-Don't you think
that is the truth?
-Of course.
I know it.
You never lie.
You're a little
lady, a good girl.
Yes, don't cry.
I'll find Akio and Tom.
Hm?
-I know you can.
-Happier now, huh?
[SIGHS]
-I give up, I guess.
-The observatory, we'll check.
-Thanks, Kon.
Good idea.
-Kon, surely you don't
take her seriously.
The observatory can't be
brought into this now.
-She said she saw--
-She's just a young child.
And I'm convinced she
just imagined she saw it.
The boys are around
here somewhere.
I just know that they are.
Please, you've got to
look for them right now.
-Ah, sure.
I will.
Yes, yes--
-Thank you.
-Yes.
-Because psychologists insist
that if you believe everything
a child says, it's educationally
and psychologically wrong.
-It's easy to say.
Tomoko there, she doesn't like.
-You mustn't listen.
TOMOKO: Brother, Kon's going
to find you, so don't give up.
Please, dear God, look after
the boys, and save them.
-Akio.
-Mm-hmm.
-Well, isn't this
appealing, yes?
You are hungry, aren't you?
-[BOTH] Oh, yes.
-Tom, look.
Our favorite donuts.
-Sure looks great.
-I'll say.
Looks just like the ones
Mother makes, doesn't it?
-Please eat, won't you?
-Thanks, Barbella.
-Just a minute.
-What is it?
-Be quiet.
-Akio?
-I thought I heard
Gamera coming.
-Oh?
I don't hear anything at all.
-I must have imagined it.
TOM: Let's eat.
Come on.
-I'll give you half.
-Thank you.
-Mmm, it's good.
Hey, Akio.
Akio, what is it?
What's the matter?
-The sleeping
powder took effect.
Go on, hurry.
-Right.
-Cut here.
Remove the skull in this area.
[ALARM SOUNDS]
-It's Gamera.
-Gamera is the
children's friend.
It's here for them, Florbella.
-It's bad timing.
-Let's take care of it.
Gamera can't beat Guiron.
I'll try the missile first.
-I didn't do any good.
Let Guiron out.
-He's dead.
Serves him right.
[BOTH LAUGH]
[SLEEPILY GRUNTS]
[GASPS]
-Akio.
Akio!
What's happened?
Oh, lady!
Oh, lady!
-We must cook them.
Or-- wait a minute.
There's no response.
That's strange.
Gamera must have
put it out of order.
It's the only one left.
If it's no good, then--
-You're right.
We'll eat their brains
after we fix the ship.
Let's attend to it.
-It's awful.
Akio.
Akio.
Akio!
-It hurts.
[GASPS]
-What happened to my hair?
-There's no time to
worry about that.
I just found out.
These people are cannibals.
-Huh?
-They're not fixing the ship
just to take us back to Earth.
That want to go back
there to eat people.
Let's run.
-But my head.
-Here, wear this.
Hurry!
Hurry!
AKIO: Tom, wait a minute.
-How did they get out?
-They know, I guess.
And so they're
attempting to run away.
-I'll soon stop that.
-Ah, thought you'd get away, eh?
-We're right back to
the starting cage.
Run!
-Akio, you're smart.
-I reset the carriers.
[LAUGHS] Come and look.
See there?
-Hip hooray!
The cannibals are gone.
-Quick!
Let's go break the handles,
so they can't operate it.
-OK.
-All set.
-Good.
Victory!
They'll not return here again.
There, it's done.
Well, I think that'll
hold them, all right.
Say goodbye forever.
-Not quite.
-We broke the controls.
-But you couldn't return.
-But we adjusted the control,
and set it for a round trip.
-OK, let's go.
-Stay where you are.
-Let me go!
We're not good to eat.
-Get up there.
Hands above your head.
Back to back.
-Contact.
[MUFFLED PROTESTS FROM CHILDREN]
-Hurry, go repair
the space ship.
-Where could they have gone?
Even the police are
worried about it.
-Well, I'll certainly give
Tom a good licking, all right.
That is, when he
finally gets back.
-I'm so very sorry.
-It's not your fault.
-I hope they return.
[CAR HONKS]
- There they are.
There's the little girl.
-Tomoko, will you tell us
about the spaceship you saw?
Will you?
-Wait a second.
Just who are you?
-Are you Akio's mother?
We have recently
learned that a space
ship was seen in these parts.
-Policemen reported
the missing boys.
So we came here to check
on the spaceship theory.
-Oh, no.
Else?
-Is it true, then?
-Tomoko, tell us your
story, all right?
-Oh sir, do they know
where the ship went?
Its destination?
-We don't know.
The ship, so they say,
flew very rapidly.
We only know about
the mysterious waves
that have been received.
Come, tell us the story.
What did it look like?
Tomoko, tell us--
[SEVERAL QUESTIONS AT ONCE]
-What do we do, Akio?
Can't we get out?
I miss Mama.
-Have courage, Tom.
We have to look for
a way to escape.
-I wish Gamera would
come and help us out.
He should be right here now.
-I can't hear.
Let's try and call.
-Gamera.
Gamera!
Gamera!
Gamera!
-Ah ha!
Good idea.
Say, do you still
have your dart pistol?
-Oh, yeah.
Good.
-That switch, hit it.
-Hold on.
OK.
I didn't hit it.
-You aimed a little high.
Tell me, how many shots to go?
-I still got three more.
Trust me.
-Hey, that's peculiar.
See that?
It's Guiron's remote
control contact you hit.
The same contact, try it again.
-OK.
-You closed it all, Akio.
-There, fixed at last.
[GUIRON ROARS]
-It's Guiron.
What happened?
-What do we do?
We can't control it from here.
Hurry.
Let's escape to Earth.
-Barbella, what
about these boys?
-Leave them.
Lots of others on Earth.
Quick, quick!
-We'll never be able
to get to Earth.
-Please wait.
-What is it?
[GRUNTS]
-It hurts.
I can't move.
Help me.
Florbella!
-You know the rules
of our planet.
Those who are
useless have to go.
It's the only solution.
-Guiron-- he's
getting closer, see?
We'll both be killed.
It's the end!
Help, help, help us, someone!
Help!
Help us!
-Let us out!
-Let us out!
-Gamera!
Gamera, help us.
Get us out.
You can make it.
-Don't give up, Gamera.
-Gamera, hang on.
-Get going, Gamera.
-Gamera!
-Gamera, don't give up.
We need you, Gamera!
-Help us.
-Gamera, don't die now.
-Gamera.
Gamera!
Can't you hear us?
-You all right, Tom?
-I'm OK.
-Gamera!
-Gamera!
-Gamera!
Get him, and get him good.
-You can kill it, Gamera.
-He jumped in the air.
-Nice jumping there, a success.
-Gamera, get away.
Get going quick, because
he's going to attack.
-Brilliant.
You got him down.
-Stay in there.
[BOTH GASP]
-Nice.
Real good going.
-A go-go dancer--
Gamera's doing a dance.
-No, he's not doing a dance.
He's trying to get
those metal things out.
Unless the metal's out,
his legs won't retract.
-Then he can't use
his jets at all.
-See that?
Now, Guiron's heading for us.
Quick, hurry!
The control, which is it?
-I don't know.
Never mind.
Push them all.
Hurry!
-We've accomplished something,
but we're not out yet.
-This must be the end.
Even Gamera can't help us.
-I get so angry.
I don't like to give up.
I wish we had a
weapon of some kind.
-I know.
Still, wishing
can't do any good.
-Let's look around.
-I don't understand.
Gamera isn't dead.
Now, we'll see.
It's a last resort,
but I'll get him.
-Ow!
Ow!
[GROANS]
-Huh?
Look, what's that?
-I wonder if it could
be the weapon I wanted.
-Akio, a missile!
-Yes.
The switch.
-Go ahead.
-Look here.
Gamera's getting out.
-Oh!
-Hurray!
Nice going, Gamera.
-Good for you, Gamera.
That's the way to do it.
Hurray for Gamera!
-Yay Gamera!
-That'll hold him, Gamera.
-Hurray, Gamera!
-The missile.
This is it.
-OK.
[FLORBELLA GROANS]
-Gamera!
The hole, you must
try and get it.
-Throw it at him.
-[BOTH] Hip hurray!
-Tom, I think
Gamera's calling us.
-Uh-huh.
-Look.
Gamera's repairing
the space ship.
Let's go.
He's waiting for us.
-Yeah.
-What a big hand!
-I'll say.
Awfully big.
-Let's go.
-Mm.
-Hey, look at us.
-Hip hurray!
-We're going to Earth, at last.
-We're in luck.
-Listen!
Listen!
-What's the matter?
What's going on?
-No-- Gamera.
He's coming.
I'll report it.
Oh, I made a mistake.
[PHONE RINGS]
-Yes?
Yes, this is he.
I don't believe it.
It's utterly ridiculous.
-Doctor, I see Gamera
on my telescope.
-What's that?
-The space ship's in his mouth.
[INTERPOSING VOICES]
-It's hard to realize.
-But-- but it's true.
Yes, it is.
The boys were taken from here.
-I hope she's right.
-Yes, I am so.
-I hope what you
are saying is true.
[LAUGHTER]
-Cut it out.
It's not right to tease her.
You know, Gamera is a
friend to children, yes?
Yes.
-Oh, Kon.
-Eh?
Yes, dear?
-Thank you.
-It's quite all right.
[INTERPOSING VOICES]
-Where's the place?
-Beyond the mountain.
-Thank you.
-Excuse me, are
you their mothers?
-Yes.
-And I, also.
-I am Dr. Shiga.
I'm very surprised.
Gamera was seen headed this way
with a space ship in his mouth.
-And our children?
TOMOKO: Look!
There's Gamera!
-Yes, you're right.
-Don't go down there.
-Tomoko!
-Akio!
Tom!
Are you all right?
We were worried.
-We should have believed her.
There are times, I guess,
when our children are
telling the truth, aren't there?
-Yes, you're right.
TOMOKO: Akio!
Tom!
-Tomoko.
-Are you all right?
We were worried.
-We're OK.
-Ahh.
-Your glasses.
-Oh, it's all right.
My glasses keep slipping
when I get excited.
[LAUGHTER]
-Thanks!
-We're back.
Mother!
-Akio!
-Tom!
Are you all right?
-I'm glad you're home.
Still and all, you made
everybody worry over you.
-You're right.
Everybody, Mother, I'm sorry.
-Oh, I see.
Are you showing
us your penitence?
Is that the idea?
-They did it on the star.
They cut his hair.
-Space creatures did it?
-Kon?
-Huh?
-Listen, Kon.
There are space
people like you, too.
-Oh.
[TOMOKO GIGGLES]
-Akio, Tom.
-Ah, Dr. Shiga, we
discovered a new planet
and saw space people.
-Yes.
We thought there'd be a highly
civilized and peaceful planet,
where there were no
wars or accidents.
But we found out
Earth's the best
and that we should
work to make it better.
We shouldn't long
for other stars.
Just try love instead.
Stop wars and no more accidents.
I guess that's all I can ask.
-You're right, yes.
And your explanation
does you honor.
-Thanks.
-Gamera's pulling in his head.
Is he going?
-So long, Gamera!
-Thank you, Gamera!
-Goodbye, Gamera!
-Goodbye, Gamera!
-Goodbye!
-So long, Gamera!
-Thanks, Gamera.
-Goodbye, Gamera!
-Goodbye!
-So long!
Goodbye.
-Goodbye, Gamera.
We'll never forget you.
one hundred billion
fixed stars in galactic space.
There are also three
billion nebula in macrocosm.
And each one is as
big as galactic space.
Old stars explode
and scatter as gas,
and new stars are
formed from the gas.
What secrets are hidden
in these countless stars?
A star is in trouble.
[MUSIC PLAYING]
NARRATOR: All astronomical
observatories catch waves.
Irregular waves that might have
been sent from outer space.
[MUSIC PLAYING]
[STATIC AND WHISTLES FROM
TRANSMITTER]
-Gentlemen, the
waves have stopped,
but we don't know yes if they
are messages from outer space.
Any questions?
-Dr. Shiga, the
same electric waves
were picked up in England.
Were they the same impulses,
do you think, in your opinion?
-Ah, yes.
Those electric
waves, in my opinion,
are much different than the
ones we are now getting.
They came from
beyond our galaxy.
These impulses are much nearer.
-Could these be humans--
do you suppose--
now living on this planet?
-It's too early to
really be certain.
Will you start this?
The moon lacks sufficient
moisture and air.
Therefore, it is impossible
to sustain any life
form on the moon as you know it.
On Mars right there, there
are no rivers at all.
It's arid.
And now, Venus-- it
has a temperature
of several hundred
degrees centigrade.
We come now to Jupiter.
Frozen ammonia
covers it entirely--
not breathable to us.
Saturn-- the same, also no air.
The conclusion-- no advanced
vertebrates exist there.
-If that's so, what is
the meaning of the waves,
would you say?
-Well let's see.
Let's assume that
they came to us
from Proxima Centauri,
the star closest to Earth.
As you know, we have today the
spaceship we call the Apollo.
And if we were to
go to Centauri,
do you know how long
it would take us?
[SEVERAL RESPONSES FROM CROWD]
-One million years.
So you see what it means.
Yes.
Even though we received an
invitation from space man.
Unless-- unless they pay
us a visit, I'm afraid
we'll never be able
to get together.
[LAUGHTER]
-Are there men in space, truly?
-Sure there are.
Or Otherwise, those waves
from space wouldn't have come.
-Tom!
Tom!
Come here quick.
I see something funny.
-Yeah?
-Yeah?
-Look.
-What is it?
Can you tell?
-Hmm.
I know what it is.
It's a space ship.
-Yeah?
It's true.
That's keen.
-Now me.
Let me look.
I want to see.
-You're too young.
I've got to watch.
GIRL: Let me look!
-All right.
-I'm sure it's a space ship.
-Yeah.
-I can't see anything.
-It came down in the
woods across the river.
Akio, let's go find it.
-OK, let's go.
-Wait!
Take me too.
AKIO: I bet it's in the
vacant lot where we play.
-Mm-hmm.
MOTHER: Akio?
Akio?
-Ah, it's too late, I guess.
Mother will scold us again.
-Yeah, it's too late.
-Well, well, I thought
you'd all be studying.
I suppose that you've
been stargazing.
AKIO: Yes.
But honestly, we
saw a space ship.
-But you must have imagined it.
It isn't good for
children to stay up late.
Your mother wouldn't
approve either.
You must admit it, Tom.
-But you see, the
reason we watch
the stars every night is that--
-Of course, I know the reason.
You want to discover new
stars, isn't that it?
Akio wants to name
a star after him,
and you, Tom, want a
star named after you.
-That's not the only reason.
See what it says?
Signals coming from out
of the stars constantly.
So if we're receiving
signals systematically,
it could mean there
are space creatures.
-We're trying to discover the
star that's sending the signal.
-So that's the reason
we all stay up.
It could be they are
quite intelligent.
Just think-- no more
wars on their planet
and no more traffic accidents.
-Just some more of
your imagination.
There is no such star.
Now behave, or I'll take
away your telescope.
-Gee, grown ups spoil a dream.
-Hm.
-All right, no more foolishness.
Go to bed now.
-All right.
-At dawn?
[DOOR OPENS]
-OK.
[DOOR SHUTS]
[MUSIC PLAYING]
[MAN GRUNTING]
-Stop.
Stop.
-What is it?
A space man?
-Idiot.
It's worse than a space man.
[MAN CONTINUES GRUNTING]
[SIGHS]
-I'll attend to it.
-OK.
-Oh well, so there it is, huh?
Hey!
Hold on!
Just a second.
Hold it!
Hold it!
What's this?
-A dart.
KONDO: You come back, too.
Hmm?
-Good day, Kondo.
-Idiot.
Don't say Kondo.
Say good day, officer.
-It's all right, young lady.
My name is Kondo.
But see here, two of you kids
shouldn't ride on one bike.
-I'm sorry, but I'm in a hurry.
-You're in a hurry?
This time of day?
Ah-ha.
It means you kids
are up to mischief.
I understand.
-No, we aren't.
We're out here looking
for a space ship.
-Huh.
You are?
-Mm-hmm.
-Oh, you're joking.
-No, we saw the ship land here.
-It's true.
It came down last night.
-I see.
I see.
I see.
Yes, but if you're
naughty, you know
what I'm going to do with
you two mischief makers?
I'm going to shave your heads.
-Yee!
-Yes, it's true.
Here, don't forget this.
Go ahead.
But don't ride there.
-All right.
-Walk.
-I think it's beyond this hill.
-Let's climb from here.
-Wait for me, Akio.
-Hurry.
[GASPING]
-It's space men.
[SIGHS OF RELIEF]
-A little hair is all it is.
GIRL: Oh, I want it.
Let's catch it.
-Come on, you idiot.
He's much too quick.
You can't.
All right, let's go.
-Yeah.
[GASPS]
-Akio!
Brother!
-What is it?
[GASPS]
-The ship, it is there.
We were right.
-Yeah, come on.
-It's great.
-Are there space men on it?
-There could be inside.
Akio, let's go in.
-Sure.
-No, I'm scared.
I don't want to go in.
-Scaredy cat.
The space men won't hurt you.
If they flew here,
they're civilized.
You're dumb.
-Yo, anyone there?
-Hello?
-You're the idiots.
You think the space men will
understand what you say?
Really?
Are you kidding?
-They'll understand.
-I guess the crew's out.
-It looks like it, all right.
-This is great.
Hey, it's running.
Imagine travelling
on this thing.
Great, huh?
It would be keen.
Ready standby for
immediate countdown.
Crew, ready for lift-off.
-OK.
[GASPS]
-Ready for countdown.
-Countdown beginning.
Ten, nine, eight, seven, six,
five, four, three, two, one,
zero.
-Akio!
Brother!
Akio?
Brother!
-Hey, it's moving.
-Yeah, it is.
-Stop it, then.
-Akio, you get out of there.
Or else later on,
you'll get a scolding.
You're gonna get a
good scolding and not
gonna eat dinner at all.
-Stop it.
Can't it be controlled?
-It won't stop now, I guess,
until the fuel runs out.
-You operated the controls,
though, didn't you?
-Of course, I did.
But don't forget,
you ordered me to.
Look there.
-We're in space already.
Funny, there's no
weightlessness in here.
-This ship's out of
the ordinary, isn't it?
-Mm-hmm.
Hey, look up there.
Oh, they're on our course.
-A meteor!
We'll be hit.
-It's terrible.
It's heading right for us.
Change our course.
-Tom, I can't.
The controls aren't right.
-We're gonna be hit then.
-It's Gamera.
Good for you, Gamera.
-Help us, Gamera.
-Nice going.
-Thanks a heap.
-Gamera, thanks a lot.
-Gamera's racing us.
Who do you think will win?
-I'm not scared now.
We're in good hands.
-Yeah.
Gamera's always been
the children's friend.
-Mm-hmm.
He's really speeding up.
Mach 3, I think.
-No, it's kind of
deceptive out there.
See Gamera's great jets?
Mach 33 is what I would say.
-Really?
I didn't realize it.
-At mach 60, he'd leave the
solar system, I bet you.
-Let's go, Gamera.
[MUSIC PLAYING]
-Gamera, what happened?
-Gamera!
Gamera!
Gamera, what's the matter?
Gamera!
You know what I think?
Maybe he's trying to stop us.
-I don't think he's
coming with us.
-Why?
-Look at that speedometer.
The lights are going faster.
-Then our speed's
increasing, isn't it?
-It's remote control.
-Akio, Gamera's jet propulsion.
-Gamera!
Keep at it.
-Gamera!
Akio, what do we do?
-I don't know,
because the ship's
going faster every second.
-Gamera!
Gamera?
-Can't you hear us?
-Mother!
Oh, Mother!
-My, my, such a loud voice,
and where were you, young lady?
-It's awful.
-Has Akio teased you again?
-No, you don't understand.
They went away on a space ship.
-Nonsense, Tomoko.
You are just as
silly as they are.
-Oh, it is true.
Because we found
the ship, all right.
And then they decided to
go in it, and it lit up.
-It's plain to see.
Your brother, Akio,
is up to something.
-Mother, tell me.
Don't you believe in space ships
or in space creatures at all?
-No, I don't.
-But the paper said they do.
Lots of people, they said,
believe in flying saucers.
-Made-up stories.
-But they were right.
-I said that's all.
Now, I want you to
be good and study.
Or you won't get
into a good school.
-I'm in trouble.
How can I make her understand?
Poor boys.
I wonder where they are now.
[WIND HOWLING]
-Tom, Tom!
Wake up.
We've landed.
-Akio, we're really safe then?
Are you all right?
-I'm OK.
-Look there.
The hatch is clear.
-The air here is like ours, so
we don't need any space suits.
-Are we back on earth?
Do you think?
-Maybe.
Let's go out and look.
-Akio, we're not on Earth.
-That's obvious, I'd say.
-It's Mars or Venus.
-No, they don't have any air.
So I guess this
is a distant star.
-Thank goodness is has air.
-You know, there are stars in
the galaxy just like Earth.
So I suppose we found ourselves
a new star-- the first ones
on it.
-Wait a minute.
Don't forget we were brought
here b by remote control.
Let's be careful.
[EXPLOSION]
-Ah, it was Gyaos.
-Well the monster
looks like Gyaos.
Still, he's a different color.
-An out-of-galaxy Gyaos.
-We're cornered.
-You said it.
-Look there.
-Hey, the water's
running backwards.
You see that?
[SCREECHES]
[SCREECHES]
[ROARS]
-I think he's going
to return to his home.
-Where'd this come from?
Uh oh-- hurry, the
opposite switch!
-Jump off.
-Oh, see?
The water's returning.
-What's going on?
-I don't know.
But from what I've
seen, I'll bet
we're on a highly
civilized star.
-Moving instantly, that's great.
-Yes.
What do you say we
investigate some more?
-Yeah, let's.
-Hey, it's great.
[VOICES ECHOING]
-Did you hear that sound?
-Somebody's here, I bet.
Call.
-Hello?
Answer!
Are you there?
Is anyone here?
-Idiot.
They don't understand
our language.
That's the reason
they don't answer.
-Akio, what if goblins come out?
Then what do we do?
-Don't you worry.
-Akio, Akio!
This is scary!
-Jump down then.
What are you afraid of?
-Did you see?
It's a moving corridor.
-Oh, yeah?
Let's get on.
-OK.
[SPEAKING ALIEN LANGUAGE]
-It's wonderful.
This must be the control center.
-Hmm.
-Hello?
Where are we now?
Can't you tell us your identity?
[SPEAKING ALIEN LANGUAGE]
-You see?
I explained they'd
understand the language.
-Greetings.
We waited for you.
-Then you do understand
our Earth language.
-Of course.
This ultra-speaking
machine translates
telepathically all languages.
-Oh, boy!
Science has advanced here
much more than on Earth.
-Mm-hmm.
Miss, can you tell me
which star this is?
-And can you tell us the
distance to the Earth?
-The star we are
on, we call Terra.
And the star is
exactly like the Earth
and has the same atmosphere.
Our star is situated exactly
on the other side of the sun
from your Earth.
-I understand.
Terra and the Earth
are twin planets, then.
-Why didn't we
know it was there?
-You see?
It's simple.
The Earth and Terra
are on a line,
but with the sun always staying
between us, you can't see them.
-Akio, it's a great discovery.
-Mmm.
The Earth and Venus, Jupiter.
Then there's Uranus,
Saturn, and then
Mercury, Mars,
Pluto, and Neptune.
That makes nine planets,
and Terra is the tenth.
-You're right.
[MONSTER ROARS]
-It's Gyaos again.
-Barbella, it's a nuisance.
Open the pit.
-Yes.
-Young lady, excuse me.
Barbella's your name?
-Yes.
Its translation is
"sweet as a little bird."
-And my name is Florbella.
It means "pretty as a flower."
-Where are the
other people here?
-Ah, Akio, see the water again?
It's running
backwards like before.
It's against the law of gravity.
-We control the laws of nature
here through our science.
-Oh.
You're quite superior, because
I looked in my telescope
every single night.
You see, I was searching
for a planet like this.
I knew somewhere, there should
be a star-- highly intelligent,
that had no wars or accidents.
[MONSTER ROARS]
-It's that monster again.
-This is our watchdog.
He's called Guiron, and we
can control his actions.
Don't worry.
-Gyaos is running.
-I don't understand.
Why do you have such
monsters anyway?
You're so advanced, and all.
-You are right.
Ours was truly an
advanced society.
We got to the point where we
control the laws of nature
by advanced electronics.
But then, a mixed up
computer brought calamity.
We found, to our
regret, that it made
uncontrollable monsters as well.
-[BOTH] Gee.
-We attempted to send
out some signals,
thinking someone would hear us.
There was no answer, though.
-Oh, gosh.
You see?
Those were the waves
reported by our Dr. Shiga.
-You see, those who were still
alive got on a big space ship,
hoping to fine another star.
But it failed.
Now, just two of
us are left alone.
Then we heard a call.
Someone was on a small ship
we sent out to probe the area.
And that's how you
two were brought here.
-I see.
-We've since been
confined to the base here.
We can't go out.
-Observe out there.
It's getting colder and
colder, completely bound
in by glaciers in
just five hours.
-Barbella.
What you are looking at now
used to be a great city.
That was long ago.
It's the home of monsters now.
-Well then, can't we go
back to Earth at once?
You'll be welcome there.
-Thank you.
We'll have the flying
saucer checked,
so we can make the trip
before we're blocked in.
-Aren't we lucky?
-Mm.
-Gee, if Gamera
were only here now.
-Don't worry.
I'm sure Gamera's
looking for us.
-Gamera?
[MUSIC PLAYING]
[ROARS]
-This is the lounge.
It's just above
the control center.
Now, you rest here until
we can repair the ship.
-[BOTH] Thanks.
-This ship only
holds two, you know.
So what are we
going to do with--
-I realize that.
There's time to
make adjustments.
I'll run tests.
I'll check with our scanner to
see if the boys are poisonous.
If not, the boys will
become our rations.
You make the final
check on the ship.
-I'm hungry.
-You think we're
really gonna go home?
-Don't worry.
The girls said we'd
go home just as
soon as the space
ship is repaired.
-Yeah, and just think
how excited they'll
get on earth, how
groovy the girls are.
They'll be a big hit down there.
Right, Akio?
Akio, what is it?
Hmm.
That's strange.
-Now boy, listen.
You are to answer all
questions that are asked you.
AKIO (VOICEOVER): Yes.
-Pay attention.
Let your mind imagine what
it would most like now.
Think.
Try to concentrate.
Are you thinking?
What's the matter?
Go on.
Complete the thought.
I see.
Right away.
Now, will you
answer my questions
until the food is ready?
AKIO (VOICEOVER): Yes.
-Are you in pain?
AKIO (VOICEOVER): No.
It feels nice.
-I see.
What?
-Akio.
What is it, Akio?
Akio, what's the matter?
Akio.
Akio.
Answer me, Akio.
FLORBELLA: This is a nuisance.
All right.
Now, concentrate again.
You know Gyaos.
Are there many
monsters on Earth?
AKIO (VOICEOVER): Not now.
Gamera got them all.
-Gamera?
Is that a creature?
This creature's looking
for you, you said.
Think.
Remember it.
Try.
AKIO (VOICEOVER): Gamera's
the friend of children.
FLORBELLA: The
friend of children?
AKIO (VOICEOVER): Yes.
He appears when we need him.
He saved a child
in Hokkaido once.
He knocked Gyaos out when
Gyaos tried to eat the child.
He saved two boys, too, when
Viras attacked the Earth.
-You know?
That's strange.
I'm sure I remember
you stopped moving.
-I had a feeling I at a
lot of Mother's donuts.
-Your Mother sure makes
donuts real great.
I'm starving-- just
the thought of it.
-I'm now hungry, just thirsty.
-The space ship?
-All checked.
We can leave whenever
you're ready.
-Good, at last.
Here.
Prepare all the foods
you see on these cards.
Use sleeping powder.
-Sleeping?
-Right.
And when they're unconscious,
under the effects
of our powder, we'll
gobble their brains raw.
-Eat their brains?
-All the knowledge that
has been handed down
is stored now in their
complicated brain cells.
And so if we eat their
brains, that knowledge
will help us to adapt.
We can accomplish it,
just as our bacteria
do here, to become
higher animals.
-I understand.
-Yes.
-Hello, my dear.
I just came for my son.
[CAR DOOR OPENS]
-Elsa!
How nice.
[CAR DOOR SHUTS]
-Thank you for keeping Tom.
-No trouble at all.
However, Tom and Akio
are still not back.
I don't understand it at all.
-Oh?
Where did they go?
I wonder if Tomoko
knows where they went.
-Else, there's no use
asking my daughter anything.
I'm sure the boys have
told her not to tell.
She says they're lost in space.
-In space?
-Yes.
Tom wants to stay
with us longer.
He must have run away,
knowing you were coming.
[LAUGHTER]
-I'm sure he did.
-Well, Tom can stay
with us a few days more.
-You're very kind.
Thank you.
I'm much obliged.
I'll see you later.
-As long as you're here,
can't you stay for tea?
-I'd like to, but I can't today.
Thank you.
-I understand.
-Thank you, again,
for your trouble.
-Take care.
-Oh, Auntie.
-Why, Tomoko.
-They are lost in space.
It's true.
Akio and your Tom did go.
-What really happened?
Can you take us there?
-Mm-hmm.
Kondo!
Kondo, it's awful!
Hurry, hurry!
-What's the matter?
KONDO: Well, they
left their bikes here.
TOMOKO: Here.
This is where the
space ship was.
-Tomoko, the other day,
there was an announcement
by the aerospace
bureau, and I'm going
to repeat exactly
what they said.
The flying saucer
scare was simply
an illusion or made-up story.
TOMOKO: No, it's true.
It is.
I saw it with my own eyes.
-Darling, listen.
The Apollo crew said there
are no living things out
there at all.
That our Earth is the
only oasis there is.
There are no living
things elsewhere.
There are no living
things in space.
-But the boys really
did get on a saucer.
And when they did, it took off.
-No, dear.
-Don't you think
that is the truth?
-Of course.
I know it.
You never lie.
You're a little
lady, a good girl.
Yes, don't cry.
I'll find Akio and Tom.
Hm?
-I know you can.
-Happier now, huh?
[SIGHS]
-I give up, I guess.
-The observatory, we'll check.
-Thanks, Kon.
Good idea.
-Kon, surely you don't
take her seriously.
The observatory can't be
brought into this now.
-She said she saw--
-She's just a young child.
And I'm convinced she
just imagined she saw it.
The boys are around
here somewhere.
I just know that they are.
Please, you've got to
look for them right now.
-Ah, sure.
I will.
Yes, yes--
-Thank you.
-Yes.
-Because psychologists insist
that if you believe everything
a child says, it's educationally
and psychologically wrong.
-It's easy to say.
Tomoko there, she doesn't like.
-You mustn't listen.
TOMOKO: Brother, Kon's going
to find you, so don't give up.
Please, dear God, look after
the boys, and save them.
-Akio.
-Mm-hmm.
-Well, isn't this
appealing, yes?
You are hungry, aren't you?
-[BOTH] Oh, yes.
-Tom, look.
Our favorite donuts.
-Sure looks great.
-I'll say.
Looks just like the ones
Mother makes, doesn't it?
-Please eat, won't you?
-Thanks, Barbella.
-Just a minute.
-What is it?
-Be quiet.
-Akio?
-I thought I heard
Gamera coming.
-Oh?
I don't hear anything at all.
-I must have imagined it.
TOM: Let's eat.
Come on.
-I'll give you half.
-Thank you.
-Mmm, it's good.
Hey, Akio.
Akio, what is it?
What's the matter?
-The sleeping
powder took effect.
Go on, hurry.
-Right.
-Cut here.
Remove the skull in this area.
[ALARM SOUNDS]
-It's Gamera.
-Gamera is the
children's friend.
It's here for them, Florbella.
-It's bad timing.
-Let's take care of it.
Gamera can't beat Guiron.
I'll try the missile first.
-I didn't do any good.
Let Guiron out.
-He's dead.
Serves him right.
[BOTH LAUGH]
[SLEEPILY GRUNTS]
[GASPS]
-Akio.
Akio!
What's happened?
Oh, lady!
Oh, lady!
-We must cook them.
Or-- wait a minute.
There's no response.
That's strange.
Gamera must have
put it out of order.
It's the only one left.
If it's no good, then--
-You're right.
We'll eat their brains
after we fix the ship.
Let's attend to it.
-It's awful.
Akio.
Akio.
Akio!
-It hurts.
[GASPS]
-What happened to my hair?
-There's no time to
worry about that.
I just found out.
These people are cannibals.
-Huh?
-They're not fixing the ship
just to take us back to Earth.
That want to go back
there to eat people.
Let's run.
-But my head.
-Here, wear this.
Hurry!
Hurry!
AKIO: Tom, wait a minute.
-How did they get out?
-They know, I guess.
And so they're
attempting to run away.
-I'll soon stop that.
-Ah, thought you'd get away, eh?
-We're right back to
the starting cage.
Run!
-Akio, you're smart.
-I reset the carriers.
[LAUGHS] Come and look.
See there?
-Hip hooray!
The cannibals are gone.
-Quick!
Let's go break the handles,
so they can't operate it.
-OK.
-All set.
-Good.
Victory!
They'll not return here again.
There, it's done.
Well, I think that'll
hold them, all right.
Say goodbye forever.
-Not quite.
-We broke the controls.
-But you couldn't return.
-But we adjusted the control,
and set it for a round trip.
-OK, let's go.
-Stay where you are.
-Let me go!
We're not good to eat.
-Get up there.
Hands above your head.
Back to back.
-Contact.
[MUFFLED PROTESTS FROM CHILDREN]
-Hurry, go repair
the space ship.
-Where could they have gone?
Even the police are
worried about it.
-Well, I'll certainly give
Tom a good licking, all right.
That is, when he
finally gets back.
-I'm so very sorry.
-It's not your fault.
-I hope they return.
[CAR HONKS]
- There they are.
There's the little girl.
-Tomoko, will you tell us
about the spaceship you saw?
Will you?
-Wait a second.
Just who are you?
-Are you Akio's mother?
We have recently
learned that a space
ship was seen in these parts.
-Policemen reported
the missing boys.
So we came here to check
on the spaceship theory.
-Oh, no.
Else?
-Is it true, then?
-Tomoko, tell us your
story, all right?
-Oh sir, do they know
where the ship went?
Its destination?
-We don't know.
The ship, so they say,
flew very rapidly.
We only know about
the mysterious waves
that have been received.
Come, tell us the story.
What did it look like?
Tomoko, tell us--
[SEVERAL QUESTIONS AT ONCE]
-What do we do, Akio?
Can't we get out?
I miss Mama.
-Have courage, Tom.
We have to look for
a way to escape.
-I wish Gamera would
come and help us out.
He should be right here now.
-I can't hear.
Let's try and call.
-Gamera.
Gamera!
Gamera!
Gamera!
-Ah ha!
Good idea.
Say, do you still
have your dart pistol?
-Oh, yeah.
Good.
-That switch, hit it.
-Hold on.
OK.
I didn't hit it.
-You aimed a little high.
Tell me, how many shots to go?
-I still got three more.
Trust me.
-Hey, that's peculiar.
See that?
It's Guiron's remote
control contact you hit.
The same contact, try it again.
-OK.
-You closed it all, Akio.
-There, fixed at last.
[GUIRON ROARS]
-It's Guiron.
What happened?
-What do we do?
We can't control it from here.
Hurry.
Let's escape to Earth.
-Barbella, what
about these boys?
-Leave them.
Lots of others on Earth.
Quick, quick!
-We'll never be able
to get to Earth.
-Please wait.
-What is it?
[GRUNTS]
-It hurts.
I can't move.
Help me.
Florbella!
-You know the rules
of our planet.
Those who are
useless have to go.
It's the only solution.
-Guiron-- he's
getting closer, see?
We'll both be killed.
It's the end!
Help, help, help us, someone!
Help!
Help us!
-Let us out!
-Let us out!
-Gamera!
Gamera, help us.
Get us out.
You can make it.
-Don't give up, Gamera.
-Gamera, hang on.
-Get going, Gamera.
-Gamera!
-Gamera, don't give up.
We need you, Gamera!
-Help us.
-Gamera, don't die now.
-Gamera.
Gamera!
Can't you hear us?
-You all right, Tom?
-I'm OK.
-Gamera!
-Gamera!
-Gamera!
Get him, and get him good.
-You can kill it, Gamera.
-He jumped in the air.
-Nice jumping there, a success.
-Gamera, get away.
Get going quick, because
he's going to attack.
-Brilliant.
You got him down.
-Stay in there.
[BOTH GASP]
-Nice.
Real good going.
-A go-go dancer--
Gamera's doing a dance.
-No, he's not doing a dance.
He's trying to get
those metal things out.
Unless the metal's out,
his legs won't retract.
-Then he can't use
his jets at all.
-See that?
Now, Guiron's heading for us.
Quick, hurry!
The control, which is it?
-I don't know.
Never mind.
Push them all.
Hurry!
-We've accomplished something,
but we're not out yet.
-This must be the end.
Even Gamera can't help us.
-I get so angry.
I don't like to give up.
I wish we had a
weapon of some kind.
-I know.
Still, wishing
can't do any good.
-Let's look around.
-I don't understand.
Gamera isn't dead.
Now, we'll see.
It's a last resort,
but I'll get him.
-Ow!
Ow!
[GROANS]
-Huh?
Look, what's that?
-I wonder if it could
be the weapon I wanted.
-Akio, a missile!
-Yes.
The switch.
-Go ahead.
-Look here.
Gamera's getting out.
-Oh!
-Hurray!
Nice going, Gamera.
-Good for you, Gamera.
That's the way to do it.
Hurray for Gamera!
-Yay Gamera!
-That'll hold him, Gamera.
-Hurray, Gamera!
-The missile.
This is it.
-OK.
[FLORBELLA GROANS]
-Gamera!
The hole, you must
try and get it.
-Throw it at him.
-[BOTH] Hip hurray!
-Tom, I think
Gamera's calling us.
-Uh-huh.
-Look.
Gamera's repairing
the space ship.
Let's go.
He's waiting for us.
-Yeah.
-What a big hand!
-I'll say.
Awfully big.
-Let's go.
-Mm.
-Hey, look at us.
-Hip hurray!
-We're going to Earth, at last.
-We're in luck.
-Listen!
Listen!
-What's the matter?
What's going on?
-No-- Gamera.
He's coming.
I'll report it.
Oh, I made a mistake.
[PHONE RINGS]
-Yes?
Yes, this is he.
I don't believe it.
It's utterly ridiculous.
-Doctor, I see Gamera
on my telescope.
-What's that?
-The space ship's in his mouth.
[INTERPOSING VOICES]
-It's hard to realize.
-But-- but it's true.
Yes, it is.
The boys were taken from here.
-I hope she's right.
-Yes, I am so.
-I hope what you
are saying is true.
[LAUGHTER]
-Cut it out.
It's not right to tease her.
You know, Gamera is a
friend to children, yes?
Yes.
-Oh, Kon.
-Eh?
Yes, dear?
-Thank you.
-It's quite all right.
[INTERPOSING VOICES]
-Where's the place?
-Beyond the mountain.
-Thank you.
-Excuse me, are
you their mothers?
-Yes.
-And I, also.
-I am Dr. Shiga.
I'm very surprised.
Gamera was seen headed this way
with a space ship in his mouth.
-And our children?
TOMOKO: Look!
There's Gamera!
-Yes, you're right.
-Don't go down there.
-Tomoko!
-Akio!
Tom!
Are you all right?
We were worried.
-We should have believed her.
There are times, I guess,
when our children are
telling the truth, aren't there?
-Yes, you're right.
TOMOKO: Akio!
Tom!
-Tomoko.
-Are you all right?
We were worried.
-We're OK.
-Ahh.
-Your glasses.
-Oh, it's all right.
My glasses keep slipping
when I get excited.
[LAUGHTER]
-Thanks!
-We're back.
Mother!
-Akio!
-Tom!
Are you all right?
-I'm glad you're home.
Still and all, you made
everybody worry over you.
-You're right.
Everybody, Mother, I'm sorry.
-Oh, I see.
Are you showing
us your penitence?
Is that the idea?
-They did it on the star.
They cut his hair.
-Space creatures did it?
-Kon?
-Huh?
-Listen, Kon.
There are space
people like you, too.
-Oh.
[TOMOKO GIGGLES]
-Akio, Tom.
-Ah, Dr. Shiga, we
discovered a new planet
and saw space people.
-Yes.
We thought there'd be a highly
civilized and peaceful planet,
where there were no
wars or accidents.
But we found out
Earth's the best
and that we should
work to make it better.
We shouldn't long
for other stars.
Just try love instead.
Stop wars and no more accidents.
I guess that's all I can ask.
-You're right, yes.
And your explanation
does you honor.
-Thanks.
-Gamera's pulling in his head.
Is he going?
-So long, Gamera!
-Thank you, Gamera!
-Goodbye, Gamera!
-Goodbye, Gamera!
-Goodbye!
-So long, Gamera!
-Thanks, Gamera.
-Goodbye, Gamera!
-Goodbye!
-So long!
Goodbye.
-Goodbye, Gamera.
We'll never forget you.
