Gamera vs. Viras (1968) - full transcript
A group of aliens from another planet head for Earth with the intentions of conquering it. Their first ship is destroyed in transit by the giant flying turtle Gamera. A second ship makes it to Earth and captures two Boy Scouts and holds them captive so that Gamera will not attack them. The aliens then implant a remote control device into the monster's neck and use the great turtle to attack Tokyo. The boys then come up with a plan to foul up the remote control device to the point where Gamera does the opposite of what he is ordered to. As a result Gamera destroys the aliens ship, but then has to contend with their giant squid like leader Viras.

contains 21% oxygen and 18% nitrogen.
Among its other properties
are argon and carbon dioxide.
It is endowed with all of the elements
essential to our survival.
Our mission is to occupy the earth
and colonize it with our own species.
We will soon approach the earth
and commence an immediate attack.
What's wrong?
Activate the radar screen!
What is that image?!
Is that image from the earth?
It is our enemy.
That creature is our enemy.
Commence the attack!
Put out its jets!
Extinguish them now!
Switch to the emergency
flight plan!
Jettison the compartment that
the creature destroyed!
Cut it loose!

Welcome back, Scoutmaster!
Welcome back!
What a fine camp.
Yes, the boys were able to
get this all together
thanks to your generosity
in letting them visit your
lab for free.
No, no. It was nothing at all.
Time for roll call!
Quiet!
Huh? What?
What is it?
It's time for roll call!
We can't be late!
That's not my hat!
Sorry.
Where's my hat?
Hurry!
Where did Masao go?
Don't worry.
He's learned his lesson.
He won't be late again.
Hey, hey, hey Have you seen Masao?
He was playing with Jim over there.
I see.
Hey, hey, hey is Jim around?
He's not here.
Have you seen Masao?
They're still not here, are they?
Well? What's the head count?
115 members in all.
113 are accounted for.
The other two have gone off somewhere...
What? Two are missing?
It's those two again, isn't it?
Yes. Those two.
INTERNATIONAL OCEAN RESEARCH LABORATORY
Masao! There it is!
Let's go check it out.
All right. Maintenance is all done!
They left. Let's go!
Doesn't look like much, huh?
This thing looks like a kid's toy.
A toy for grown ups.
They'd never let us try it out.
Want to take a look?
Okay!
Wow! This is great!
How cool!
Masao, how about we give them
a surprise?
Okay! Just leave it to me.
Hmm... Where's the battery?
Here it is!
What are you doing?
I'm switching the plus and minus.
If I interchange them,
it'll reverse the controls.
You mean they'll try to go
forward and they'll go back?
Right. They'll have no idea
what's going on!
Awesome!
Those two always get into
trouble when they're left alone.
Go look for them.
Scoutmaster, there's no need
for that.
Masao's sister can contact
them now.
Contact them?
Yes. Just a moment.
I've got it.
Masao is 48 degrees east.
That's about 200 meters from here.
Wouldn't that mean he's in
the laboratory?
This should do it!
Aw, man. I have a call.
This is Masao. Over.
Masao?
Darn! It's her!
Masao, you're late for roll call.
I'm cutting your dinner
portion in half!
We gotta hurry!
Jim!
What's wrong?
Look!
Okay!
Okay!
Thank you.
Today, we're visiting the
International Ocean Research Lab...
and thanks to the generosity
of Dr. Doby,
you'll all be able to ride in
the lab's submarine!
This device is so simple to operate...
That even a child can drive it.
But Mr. Shimada and I will go
first to show you how it works.
Here, Doctor.
Awe, man...
Masao...
This is bad, isn't it?
What did you guys do?
Oh, no. Nothing.
Nothing at all.
Push those buttons on either side.
These?
That's right.
There are many beautiful
sights under the sea. Huh?
Yes... Very nice.
Well then, let's proceed.
Dr. Doby, when you said "Proceed,"
did you mean "Go in reverse?"
No...
This is odd!
Well, let's reverse.
Doctor, we're going forward...
This isn't supposed to happen!
Are you all right, Doctor?
We're going down!
Are you all right?
Boys, due to some odd circumstances,
we'll have to postpone your rides.
Hey, Scoutmaster!
The submarine is fine.
Dr. Doby just can't operate it.
Masao!
That's silly.
No, I bet Masao could operate
it much better!
You boys are messing around
again, aren't you.
No. I'm sure I can do it.
Let me try!
Please!
Doctor, what should we do?
No... The submarine isn't
functioning properly.
It's not a good idea.
Come on. We can repair it.
Masao!
We can't risk it.
Doctor...
Masao is very good at
tinkering around with machines.
He designed this gadget here.
Then they made it at his
father's factory.
Doctor Dobi, he's really a
boy genius with machines.
But he's even better at
playing pranks!
What? It's true!
All right. Climb aboard.
Okaaaay!
Okaaaay!
Don't go too far.
Yes, Sir.
Good luck!
Give it all ya got!
They'll be headed for the end
of the earth, for sure.
Don't worry! Don't worry!
So... To go forward,
we push the Back button.
Hurry! Come on!
Hey Sis, we're going down now.
We're 50 meters down.
Everything is working.
We're going southward now.
We'll return in about 10 minutes.
Don't go too far, now!
Okay, okay!
I can't believe it.
It's a miracle!
Push the button on the side.
Wow!
This is great!
Attention all spaceship crew members.
Attention all spaceship crew members.
We must not let Spaceship
greatest sacrifice be in vain.
Activate the radar screen!
In order to capture the Earth,
we must eliminate Gamera first.
Therefore, Gamera is now our
prime target.
We must find out where he is.
Wow...
Masao, we're getting pretty
far out, aren't we?
Don't worry. Leave it to me!
Masao, what's that?!
That thing over there!
It's a monster!
Ah, it's just Gamera!
Masao, let's go!
It's all right.
Gamera is a friend to all children.
Are you sure?
We'll be fine.
You can take his picture if
you want.
I wonder where they are now.
Probably at the end of the earth!
Hey Sis, guess what?
Gamera's right alongside us!
Gamera?!
Yeah. We're having a race.
Masao! Masao!
Masao?
Yes, this is Masao. Over!
If you're making this Gamera
business up,
you'll have no dinner tonight!
Scoutmaster, we're not fibbing.
Jim is taking pictures of him
right now.
We'll show them to you later.
He's huge, huh?!
Masao, Gamera is walking
around on all fours!
All right. We're going to try to
drive this thing under Gamera.
Here we go!
Attention all spaceship crew members.
Attention all spaceship crew members.
Look! It's Gamera.
We have located Gamera.
Commence the attack!
Fire the Super Catch Ray!
Masao, what's up?
Hello? Hello?
This is Masao. This is Masao!
Sis! Sis!
It's no use. The frequency is
jammed or something.
Jim, Gamera is caught in this ray.
It seems like he can't move.
So what's going to happen to us?
We're running low on oxygen!
Gamera, help us!
If we don't get out of here soon,
we're gonna die!
Now! Let's go!
Okay! Back button!
The Super Catch Ray will only
be able to
hold him for another 15 minutes.
We must use the time we have left
to find out how to capture Gamera
and make him our slave.
Therefore...
We shall now explore his
memory waves with our Videotron
so we can investigate his past.
First, we shall see how
Gamera was born.
We will study his powers so
we can find his weaknesses.
HIGHLAND PARK
Gamera is a formidable force
with great destructive power.
His one weakness is
his unusual and over powering
kindness to human children.
Oh, no!
The Super Catch Ray has lost
its power!
Commence the attack on Gamera
at once!
It's true! Gamera helped us!
This picture will prove it.
Jim, what happened?
I messed up.
It's dark down there
and I didn't have a flash.
Jim...
There's nothing here!
You two are quite good at
making up stories,
aren't you?
Scoutmaster!
What's that?
What is that thing?
What is that?
It's Gamera!
Gamera!
Gamera! Wait up!
Go get the boys.
Everyone go back!
Doctor, please lead them back.
Okay!
Gamera! Gamera!
Gamera! Gamera!
Prepare the brainwave
decryption device!
Attention Gamera!
Attention Gamera!
If you attack our spaceship,
we will kill those two boys!
Miss Nakatani, where are the boys?
Over there!
I shall repeat.
If you attack our spaceship...
We will kill those two boys!
Masao!
Masao!
Attention Gamera!
Attention Gamera!
We have taken the two boys hostage.
You shall obey our commands...
Or we will kill them!
Masao!
Masao!
Miss Nakatani, it's too dangerous.
Get back to the laboratory!
Hurry!
Masao!
Masao!
Gamera! Touch down!
Obey our commands or we will
kill the two boys!
Gamera! Touch down!
All evacuated, Sir!
What happened to Masao?
Miss Nakatani...
Don't worry. I'll think of a
way to rescue the boys.
You'll help, too!
Yes, Sir.
Doctor!
Gamera... It's Gamera!
Look out!
It's the spaceship!
Masao and Jim are inside that ship!
Please, save them!
Jim! Jim!
Let's go!
What's with these guys?
The people here sure are weird.
Let's go!
You guys were captured just
like us, huh?
Let's escape together!
That's so cool!
Let's give it a try!
Owe!
Ouch!
That really freakin' hurt...
Guess it doesn't work for kids.
They make all the good stuff
for grown ups!
Nothing we can do. Let's go.
What's going on?
Are we trapped?
Don't worry.
It's just an automatic door.
See?
And now...
We begin our attack on Gamera!
Prepare the brainwave control device!
Activate the radar screen!
Get ready to activate the
laser beam!
Laser beam standing by!
Fire!
He seems to be weakening.
Prepare to fire the brainwave
control device!
Standing by!
Fire!
We did it! A direct hit!
Now we can freely control
Gamera's brain waves.
He must now obey our commands.
Let's test it out.
Activate the brainwave
control device!
Gamera! Obey us at once!
Take off!
Gamera! Obey us at once! Fly!
Fly!
It's working!
Gamera! Fly around the spaceship!
Do it!
Turn om the radar screen!
This isn't good!
Gamera's under their control.
He'll do only what they say.
If they were to use him for evil...
We have to do something right away!
Yeah. Let's take a look
around the ship.
Hurry!
No matter where you go,
there's nothing there!
I'm getting thirsty.
We didn't eat any lunch today!
I sure am hungry!
Even just a glass of juice
would do.
Look! What's that?
It looks like fruit juice.
Is it Okay, Masao?
It's better than the juice in Japan!
Damn it!
We said we wanted some juice...
And it came out of this wall.
We should've said sandwiches.
I've got it!
Jim, this ship operates on telepathy.
You just think about what you
want to do...
And the ship's controls make
it happen through telekinesis.
Well, then... I want a
parachute to get us out of here!
I want a weapon to blast
those guys!
Children, this ship's
telepathic control device
has a safety system.
If you think of anything that
would be
dangerous to the ship...
It won't be carried out in
any way!
You two are very valuable to
us for controlling Gamera.
You will have complete
freedom within our ship...
As long as you do not try to
escape or harm us.
Have I made myself clear?
Wait!
You're wasting your time!
You're Japanese, aren't you?
Or are you from another
planet like Earth?
They aren't from Earth.
They look Japanese,
but they're not.
If they capture the Earth,
it'll be big trouble for us all.
We know we can have anything
we want,
as long as it's not dangerous
to the ship.
There must be some way to
stop them!
I've got it!
I want to eat some fruit.
Fruit! Fruit!
Masao, what are you saying?
This is no time for fruit!
It'll give me a knife to cut
the fruit with.
You get it?
A knife? I get it.
I'm hungry, too.
Give me an apple!
Make sure it's not peeled.
And don't forget the knife!
Awe, man...
Masao, something's going on!
Let's go to the next room!
Someone's coming!
There's no one here.
How weird!
It's pitch dark in here.
It must be empty.
Where'd he put that thing he
was carrying?
What kind of room is this anyway?
It doesn't look like the
control room or a mess hall.
Hey!
Jim, have you seen my hat?
Nope!
There it is!
That sure is weird.
There's no breeze in here,
but my hat flew off.
Jim, do you smell something fishy?
Not really.
Look out! Run!
What the heck is that thing?
Some kind of monster.
A space monster!
I bet they caught him and took
him prisoner, just like us.
I wonder if they caught him
as a specimen.
Maybe they'll put him in a
zoo or circus?
After that, they'll dissect him...
and see what he's made of.
Poor guy.
Let's set him free!
Don't be stupid, Jim!
If you came across a lion that
someone caught,
would you set it free?
You wouldn't, right?
For all we know, this monster
might be like a lion from Africa!
So you think they're going to
take us somewhere and...
Masao! The monster nodded his head!
Wow!
He must understand what we're saying!
If we free him, he might help
us get out of here!
Let's do it!
Jim, look at this.
There's no lock or handle on
this cage!
I know! It must open by telepathy.
That's strange, though.
We're doing something that
might harm the ship.
But the alarm isn't sounding!
It must be a gentle monster.
Even if we let him out,
he won't hurt anything.
The guy from earlier is
coming back!
Jim, let's take care of him?
How?
Leave it to me! Come on!
We'll come back and free you
when we have a chance!
He's coming! Get your lasso!
Go!
What are you two doing?
You think you can take us to
your zoo?
No way!
Dangerous actions are prohibited.
You are no longer permitted
to move freely.
Shit...
Gamera! Destroy the
Okumusashi Dam!
Alert the army!
Gamera, your next target is Tokyo!
Destroy Tokyo!
Destroy Tokyo!
What's that noise?
Ah! It's a call from my sister!
This is Masao. Over!
Masao! Is it you?
It's me.
Thank goodness!
You're still alive!
Sis, don't worry.
I'm doing fine.
Masao, Gamera is wreaking havoc!
Just as I thought...
Gamera's being brainwashed.
The spaceship crew are
directing his thoughts!
Is there any way you two can escape?
No. We're being held prisoner.
What's worse, they've pinned
us up against the wall.
Don't give up! Use the same nerve
you used playing your pranks!
Okay! We'll think of something!
Someone's coming!
I'll get in touch again later!
Masao, what's that thing he
put in there?
It must be the monster's
space food.
Space food?
Boy, I wish I'd eaten more of
those sandwiches.
I'm so hungry...
Gamera! Tear it down!
Level the place!
Attack Tokyo Tower!
Knock it down!
Gamera! Destroy the Tokyo Bay
Fuel Depot!
Masao, what're we gonna do?
We can't do anything if we're
stuck here!
Wait!
Jim, do you still have your rope?
See if you can raise it up here.
Why?
Just leave it to me.
Attention Earthlings!
Attention Earthlings!
We have Gamera under our control.
Until you surrender, we'll
order him to continue his attacks.
If you've had enough of this destruction,
surrender immediately!
If you resist, we cannot guarantee
the lives of the two boys
on our spaceship.
Gamera's destructive path is now
spreading across the entire country.
There's no telling what else
he will destroy.
Unfortunately, none of our weapons
appear strong enough to
defeat him.
General!
We've switched on the
emergency power!
Our one target for counter attack
is the spaceship controlling
Gamera's actions.
But those two boys are still
being held hostage
on board the ship.
General!
Masao's father and Jim's
parents have arrived.
Bring them in.
Father!
General!
Isn't there a way you can
rescue Masao?
Please save Jim!
I understand how you must feel.
But at the present time,
we have no way to rescue them.
We must make one of two choices.
The first is to accept their demands
and surrender the earth to
their power.
The second is to sacrifice
the lives of Masao and Jim
for the freedom of eveyone on earth...
and attack the spaceship.
General, which of the two
options will you choose?
All of earth is concerned in
this decision.
The United Nations has called
an emergency
meeting at their headquarters
in New York.
We'll receive their decision soon.
We're just waiting for their
phone call.
Mariko, Masao still has his
wrist radio, doesn't he?
Yes. But when the ship's too
far away,
I can't get through to him.
Damn. I see what you're saying...
Doctor, how much longer?
Ten more minutes.
Mr. Nakatani,
please wait ten more minutes.
We're increasing the
transmission range
so we can reach Masao's wrist radio.
Please do everything you can.
Jim, straighten yourself up
as much as possible.
Are your feet clear?
All right, duck down and try
to slip out of these bands.
Okay, I'm free!
All right. Now it's my turn.
Mr. Shimada!
We've made contact!
Ah, my sister's calling us!
This is Masao. This is Masao!
Masao!
Masao, it seems that the earth
is deciding whether to surrender...
Or to attack the ship you're on.
Sis, please tell this to everyone.
We'll sacrifice ourselves.
Please attack the ship.
Mama... Papa...
Please tell everyone.
Go ahead and attack the ship.
Everyone, we've received the decision
from the United Nations headquarters.
We can't sacrifice those two boys.
Humanity is going to surrender.
Sis, what's wrong?
Why is everyone so quiet?
Sis, what is it?
What happened?
Masao, the Earth has decided
to surrender!
No! We don't care about ourselves.
Please, attack the spaceship!
Masao, this is a decision
from the United Nations headquarters.
We have no other choice!
Is there no other way?
Masao, Jim, I checked the engine
of the submarine you took out.
I saw that you tampered with
the battery coil
and made the engine go in reverse.
You two really...
Mr. Shimada!
This is no time to scold them
about a stupid prank!
Wait. That prank might be
able to save the Earth.
Listen, you need to do
something to
reverse the device that's
controlling Gamera!
Switch up the control device?
Of course! If we switch the
battery coil,
it'll reverse the current!
Then the commands Gamera's
getting will be reversed, too!
We understand, Scoutmaster!
We'll give it a shot!
We're counting on you!
The earth has surrendered.
The first phase of our
mission is complete!
Now we can begin Phase Two
with no resistance...
and attack the earth!
We Virases are the greatest
species in the universe!
All other species are useless!
Gamera, annihilate the Earthlings!
Destroy them all!
Oh, shiiiit...
Oh, shiiiit...
Let's go!
Help!
The monster's loose!
Now!
The control device!
Switch these two.
Now let's see what happens.
All right! It worked!
We've got one more to do!
Let's go!
Strange...Those kids were
lying, weren't they?
Where's the Super Catch Ray
firing device?
Let's change these two around.
Leave it to me!
All right!
Masao!
It's all right.
Fire the Super Catch Ray!
Over there!
Masao!
It worked perfectly!
The ray usually moves things
up into the ship.
But since we reversed the current...
It beamed us back down to earth!
That prank really saved us!
It's the spaceship!
Run!
Those kids! How did they escape?
We'll make Gamera attack them!
Order Gamera to kill them!
Gamera! Touch down! Touch down!
Gamera, attack those two boys!
Kill them!
Gamera! What are you doing?
Can't you hear?
Kill those two boys!
It's no use. Run!
All right, Gamera!
Boss!
This is the only safe room left!
Please, save us!
We beg you! Please save us!
This is the only room left!
We have to hide here!
Boss, please let us stay here!
We beg you!
Activate the transmitter!
To our mother star, Viras...
We cannot capture the earth
unless we kill Gamera first.
Spaceship #2 is now switching
to emergency flight.
Gamera!
The spaceship's getting away!
Gamera's brainwave control
device was smashed.
Then it's over!
Jim, let's check out their spaceship.
Okay!
We are down to our last resort.
I shall kill Gamera no matter
what happens now.
To do this, I must have all
of your lives!
But, Boss!
I get it now!
Those humans were caught by
the Super Catch Ray,
just like us.
The monsters hid themselves
in their bodies
to pose as humans.
They wore their bodies just
like suits.
Run!
Look out!
Gamera! Use your fire attack!
Gamera!
Nice shot!
Cool!
Gamera! Get closer!
Gamera! Gamera!
Gamera!
Gamera! Gamera!
Gamera!
Gamera, it's coming at you!
Go, Gamera!
Gamera!
Gamera, use your jets!
Gamera, what's going on?
Go, Gamera! Go!
That's the last we'll see of Viras!
All right! Gamera won!
Masao!
Sis!
Nice work, Boys.
You put your pranks to good
use for once.
But for your practical jokes,
no dinner for you two tonight!
Nice work, Jim!
It's Gamera!
Goodbye!
Goodbye, Gamera!
Goodbye!
Thank you, Gamera!
Goodbye!

Welcome back, Scoutmaster!
Welcome back!
What a fine camp.
Yes, the boys were able to
get this all together
thanks to your generosity
in letting them visit your
lab for free.
No, no. It was nothing at all.
Time for roll call!
Quiet!
Huh? What?
What is it?
It's time for roll call!
We can't be late!
That's not my hat!
Sorry.
Where's my hat?
Hurry!
Where did Masao go?
Don't worry.
He's learned his lesson.
He won't be late again.
Hey, hey, hey Have you seen Masao?
He was playing with Jim over there.
I see.
Hey, hey, hey is Jim around?
He's not here.
Have you seen Masao?
They're still not here, are they?
Well? What's the head count?
115 members in all.
113 are accounted for.
The other two have gone off somewhere...
What? Two are missing?
It's those two again, isn't it?
Yes. Those two.
INTERNATIONAL OCEAN RESEARCH LABORATORY
Masao! There it is!
Let's go check it out.
All right. Maintenance is all done!
They left. Let's go!
Doesn't look like much, huh?
This thing looks like a kid's toy.
A toy for grown ups.
They'd never let us try it out.
Want to take a look?
Okay!
Wow! This is great!
How cool!
Masao, how about we give them
a surprise?
Okay! Just leave it to me.
Hmm... Where's the battery?
Here it is!
What are you doing?
I'm switching the plus and minus.
If I interchange them,
it'll reverse the controls.
You mean they'll try to go
forward and they'll go back?
Right. They'll have no idea
what's going on!
Awesome!
Those two always get into
trouble when they're left alone.
Go look for them.
Scoutmaster, there's no need
for that.
Masao's sister can contact
them now.
Contact them?
Yes. Just a moment.
I've got it.
Masao is 48 degrees east.
That's about 200 meters from here.
Wouldn't that mean he's in
the laboratory?
This should do it!
Aw, man. I have a call.
This is Masao. Over.
Masao?
Darn! It's her!
Masao, you're late for roll call.
I'm cutting your dinner
portion in half!
We gotta hurry!
Jim!
What's wrong?
Look!
Okay!
Okay!
Thank you.
Today, we're visiting the
International Ocean Research Lab...
and thanks to the generosity
of Dr. Doby,
you'll all be able to ride in
the lab's submarine!
This device is so simple to operate...
That even a child can drive it.
But Mr. Shimada and I will go
first to show you how it works.
Here, Doctor.
Awe, man...
Masao...
This is bad, isn't it?
What did you guys do?
Oh, no. Nothing.
Nothing at all.
Push those buttons on either side.
These?
That's right.
There are many beautiful
sights under the sea. Huh?
Yes... Very nice.
Well then, let's proceed.
Dr. Doby, when you said "Proceed,"
did you mean "Go in reverse?"
No...
This is odd!
Well, let's reverse.
Doctor, we're going forward...
This isn't supposed to happen!
Are you all right, Doctor?
We're going down!
Are you all right?
Boys, due to some odd circumstances,
we'll have to postpone your rides.
Hey, Scoutmaster!
The submarine is fine.
Dr. Doby just can't operate it.
Masao!
That's silly.
No, I bet Masao could operate
it much better!
You boys are messing around
again, aren't you.
No. I'm sure I can do it.
Let me try!
Please!
Doctor, what should we do?
No... The submarine isn't
functioning properly.
It's not a good idea.
Come on. We can repair it.
Masao!
We can't risk it.
Doctor...
Masao is very good at
tinkering around with machines.
He designed this gadget here.
Then they made it at his
father's factory.
Doctor Dobi, he's really a
boy genius with machines.
But he's even better at
playing pranks!
What? It's true!
All right. Climb aboard.
Okaaaay!
Okaaaay!
Don't go too far.
Yes, Sir.
Good luck!
Give it all ya got!
They'll be headed for the end
of the earth, for sure.
Don't worry! Don't worry!
So... To go forward,
we push the Back button.
Hurry! Come on!
Hey Sis, we're going down now.
We're 50 meters down.
Everything is working.
We're going southward now.
We'll return in about 10 minutes.
Don't go too far, now!
Okay, okay!
I can't believe it.
It's a miracle!
Push the button on the side.
Wow!
This is great!
Attention all spaceship crew members.
Attention all spaceship crew members.
We must not let Spaceship
greatest sacrifice be in vain.
Activate the radar screen!
In order to capture the Earth,
we must eliminate Gamera first.
Therefore, Gamera is now our
prime target.
We must find out where he is.
Wow...
Masao, we're getting pretty
far out, aren't we?
Don't worry. Leave it to me!
Masao, what's that?!
That thing over there!
It's a monster!
Ah, it's just Gamera!
Masao, let's go!
It's all right.
Gamera is a friend to all children.
Are you sure?
We'll be fine.
You can take his picture if
you want.
I wonder where they are now.
Probably at the end of the earth!
Hey Sis, guess what?
Gamera's right alongside us!
Gamera?!
Yeah. We're having a race.
Masao! Masao!
Masao?
Yes, this is Masao. Over!
If you're making this Gamera
business up,
you'll have no dinner tonight!
Scoutmaster, we're not fibbing.
Jim is taking pictures of him
right now.
We'll show them to you later.
He's huge, huh?!
Masao, Gamera is walking
around on all fours!
All right. We're going to try to
drive this thing under Gamera.
Here we go!
Attention all spaceship crew members.
Attention all spaceship crew members.
Look! It's Gamera.
We have located Gamera.
Commence the attack!
Fire the Super Catch Ray!
Masao, what's up?
Hello? Hello?
This is Masao. This is Masao!
Sis! Sis!
It's no use. The frequency is
jammed or something.
Jim, Gamera is caught in this ray.
It seems like he can't move.
So what's going to happen to us?
We're running low on oxygen!
Gamera, help us!
If we don't get out of here soon,
we're gonna die!
Now! Let's go!
Okay! Back button!
The Super Catch Ray will only
be able to
hold him for another 15 minutes.
We must use the time we have left
to find out how to capture Gamera
and make him our slave.
Therefore...
We shall now explore his
memory waves with our Videotron
so we can investigate his past.
First, we shall see how
Gamera was born.
We will study his powers so
we can find his weaknesses.
HIGHLAND PARK
Gamera is a formidable force
with great destructive power.
His one weakness is
his unusual and over powering
kindness to human children.
Oh, no!
The Super Catch Ray has lost
its power!
Commence the attack on Gamera
at once!
It's true! Gamera helped us!
This picture will prove it.
Jim, what happened?
I messed up.
It's dark down there
and I didn't have a flash.
Jim...
There's nothing here!
You two are quite good at
making up stories,
aren't you?
Scoutmaster!
What's that?
What is that thing?
What is that?
It's Gamera!
Gamera!
Gamera! Wait up!
Go get the boys.
Everyone go back!
Doctor, please lead them back.
Okay!
Gamera! Gamera!
Gamera! Gamera!
Prepare the brainwave
decryption device!
Attention Gamera!
Attention Gamera!
If you attack our spaceship,
we will kill those two boys!
Miss Nakatani, where are the boys?
Over there!
I shall repeat.
If you attack our spaceship...
We will kill those two boys!
Masao!
Masao!
Attention Gamera!
Attention Gamera!
We have taken the two boys hostage.
You shall obey our commands...
Or we will kill them!
Masao!
Masao!
Miss Nakatani, it's too dangerous.
Get back to the laboratory!
Hurry!
Masao!
Masao!
Gamera! Touch down!
Obey our commands or we will
kill the two boys!
Gamera! Touch down!
All evacuated, Sir!
What happened to Masao?
Miss Nakatani...
Don't worry. I'll think of a
way to rescue the boys.
You'll help, too!
Yes, Sir.
Doctor!
Gamera... It's Gamera!
Look out!
It's the spaceship!
Masao and Jim are inside that ship!
Please, save them!
Jim! Jim!
Let's go!
What's with these guys?
The people here sure are weird.
Let's go!
You guys were captured just
like us, huh?
Let's escape together!
That's so cool!
Let's give it a try!
Owe!
Ouch!
That really freakin' hurt...
Guess it doesn't work for kids.
They make all the good stuff
for grown ups!
Nothing we can do. Let's go.
What's going on?
Are we trapped?
Don't worry.
It's just an automatic door.
See?
And now...
We begin our attack on Gamera!
Prepare the brainwave control device!
Activate the radar screen!
Get ready to activate the
laser beam!
Laser beam standing by!
Fire!
He seems to be weakening.
Prepare to fire the brainwave
control device!
Standing by!
Fire!
We did it! A direct hit!
Now we can freely control
Gamera's brain waves.
He must now obey our commands.
Let's test it out.
Activate the brainwave
control device!
Gamera! Obey us at once!
Take off!
Gamera! Obey us at once! Fly!
Fly!
It's working!
Gamera! Fly around the spaceship!
Do it!
Turn om the radar screen!
This isn't good!
Gamera's under their control.
He'll do only what they say.
If they were to use him for evil...
We have to do something right away!
Yeah. Let's take a look
around the ship.
Hurry!
No matter where you go,
there's nothing there!
I'm getting thirsty.
We didn't eat any lunch today!
I sure am hungry!
Even just a glass of juice
would do.
Look! What's that?
It looks like fruit juice.
Is it Okay, Masao?
It's better than the juice in Japan!
Damn it!
We said we wanted some juice...
And it came out of this wall.
We should've said sandwiches.
I've got it!
Jim, this ship operates on telepathy.
You just think about what you
want to do...
And the ship's controls make
it happen through telekinesis.
Well, then... I want a
parachute to get us out of here!
I want a weapon to blast
those guys!
Children, this ship's
telepathic control device
has a safety system.
If you think of anything that
would be
dangerous to the ship...
It won't be carried out in
any way!
You two are very valuable to
us for controlling Gamera.
You will have complete
freedom within our ship...
As long as you do not try to
escape or harm us.
Have I made myself clear?
Wait!
You're wasting your time!
You're Japanese, aren't you?
Or are you from another
planet like Earth?
They aren't from Earth.
They look Japanese,
but they're not.
If they capture the Earth,
it'll be big trouble for us all.
We know we can have anything
we want,
as long as it's not dangerous
to the ship.
There must be some way to
stop them!
I've got it!
I want to eat some fruit.
Fruit! Fruit!
Masao, what are you saying?
This is no time for fruit!
It'll give me a knife to cut
the fruit with.
You get it?
A knife? I get it.
I'm hungry, too.
Give me an apple!
Make sure it's not peeled.
And don't forget the knife!
Awe, man...
Masao, something's going on!
Let's go to the next room!
Someone's coming!
There's no one here.
How weird!
It's pitch dark in here.
It must be empty.
Where'd he put that thing he
was carrying?
What kind of room is this anyway?
It doesn't look like the
control room or a mess hall.
Hey!
Jim, have you seen my hat?
Nope!
There it is!
That sure is weird.
There's no breeze in here,
but my hat flew off.
Jim, do you smell something fishy?
Not really.
Look out! Run!
What the heck is that thing?
Some kind of monster.
A space monster!
I bet they caught him and took
him prisoner, just like us.
I wonder if they caught him
as a specimen.
Maybe they'll put him in a
zoo or circus?
After that, they'll dissect him...
and see what he's made of.
Poor guy.
Let's set him free!
Don't be stupid, Jim!
If you came across a lion that
someone caught,
would you set it free?
You wouldn't, right?
For all we know, this monster
might be like a lion from Africa!
So you think they're going to
take us somewhere and...
Masao! The monster nodded his head!
Wow!
He must understand what we're saying!
If we free him, he might help
us get out of here!
Let's do it!
Jim, look at this.
There's no lock or handle on
this cage!
I know! It must open by telepathy.
That's strange, though.
We're doing something that
might harm the ship.
But the alarm isn't sounding!
It must be a gentle monster.
Even if we let him out,
he won't hurt anything.
The guy from earlier is
coming back!
Jim, let's take care of him?
How?
Leave it to me! Come on!
We'll come back and free you
when we have a chance!
He's coming! Get your lasso!
Go!
What are you two doing?
You think you can take us to
your zoo?
No way!
Dangerous actions are prohibited.
You are no longer permitted
to move freely.
Shit...
Gamera! Destroy the
Okumusashi Dam!
Alert the army!
Gamera, your next target is Tokyo!
Destroy Tokyo!
Destroy Tokyo!
What's that noise?
Ah! It's a call from my sister!
This is Masao. Over!
Masao! Is it you?
It's me.
Thank goodness!
You're still alive!
Sis, don't worry.
I'm doing fine.
Masao, Gamera is wreaking havoc!
Just as I thought...
Gamera's being brainwashed.
The spaceship crew are
directing his thoughts!
Is there any way you two can escape?
No. We're being held prisoner.
What's worse, they've pinned
us up against the wall.
Don't give up! Use the same nerve
you used playing your pranks!
Okay! We'll think of something!
Someone's coming!
I'll get in touch again later!
Masao, what's that thing he
put in there?
It must be the monster's
space food.
Space food?
Boy, I wish I'd eaten more of
those sandwiches.
I'm so hungry...
Gamera! Tear it down!
Level the place!
Attack Tokyo Tower!
Knock it down!
Gamera! Destroy the Tokyo Bay
Fuel Depot!
Masao, what're we gonna do?
We can't do anything if we're
stuck here!
Wait!
Jim, do you still have your rope?
See if you can raise it up here.
Why?
Just leave it to me.
Attention Earthlings!
Attention Earthlings!
We have Gamera under our control.
Until you surrender, we'll
order him to continue his attacks.
If you've had enough of this destruction,
surrender immediately!
If you resist, we cannot guarantee
the lives of the two boys
on our spaceship.
Gamera's destructive path is now
spreading across the entire country.
There's no telling what else
he will destroy.
Unfortunately, none of our weapons
appear strong enough to
defeat him.
General!
We've switched on the
emergency power!
Our one target for counter attack
is the spaceship controlling
Gamera's actions.
But those two boys are still
being held hostage
on board the ship.
General!
Masao's father and Jim's
parents have arrived.
Bring them in.
Father!
General!
Isn't there a way you can
rescue Masao?
Please save Jim!
I understand how you must feel.
But at the present time,
we have no way to rescue them.
We must make one of two choices.
The first is to accept their demands
and surrender the earth to
their power.
The second is to sacrifice
the lives of Masao and Jim
for the freedom of eveyone on earth...
and attack the spaceship.
General, which of the two
options will you choose?
All of earth is concerned in
this decision.
The United Nations has called
an emergency
meeting at their headquarters
in New York.
We'll receive their decision soon.
We're just waiting for their
phone call.
Mariko, Masao still has his
wrist radio, doesn't he?
Yes. But when the ship's too
far away,
I can't get through to him.
Damn. I see what you're saying...
Doctor, how much longer?
Ten more minutes.
Mr. Nakatani,
please wait ten more minutes.
We're increasing the
transmission range
so we can reach Masao's wrist radio.
Please do everything you can.
Jim, straighten yourself up
as much as possible.
Are your feet clear?
All right, duck down and try
to slip out of these bands.
Okay, I'm free!
All right. Now it's my turn.
Mr. Shimada!
We've made contact!
Ah, my sister's calling us!
This is Masao. This is Masao!
Masao!
Masao, it seems that the earth
is deciding whether to surrender...
Or to attack the ship you're on.
Sis, please tell this to everyone.
We'll sacrifice ourselves.
Please attack the ship.
Mama... Papa...
Please tell everyone.
Go ahead and attack the ship.
Everyone, we've received the decision
from the United Nations headquarters.
We can't sacrifice those two boys.
Humanity is going to surrender.
Sis, what's wrong?
Why is everyone so quiet?
Sis, what is it?
What happened?
Masao, the Earth has decided
to surrender!
No! We don't care about ourselves.
Please, attack the spaceship!
Masao, this is a decision
from the United Nations headquarters.
We have no other choice!
Is there no other way?
Masao, Jim, I checked the engine
of the submarine you took out.
I saw that you tampered with
the battery coil
and made the engine go in reverse.
You two really...
Mr. Shimada!
This is no time to scold them
about a stupid prank!
Wait. That prank might be
able to save the Earth.
Listen, you need to do
something to
reverse the device that's
controlling Gamera!
Switch up the control device?
Of course! If we switch the
battery coil,
it'll reverse the current!
Then the commands Gamera's
getting will be reversed, too!
We understand, Scoutmaster!
We'll give it a shot!
We're counting on you!
The earth has surrendered.
The first phase of our
mission is complete!
Now we can begin Phase Two
with no resistance...
and attack the earth!
We Virases are the greatest
species in the universe!
All other species are useless!
Gamera, annihilate the Earthlings!
Destroy them all!
Oh, shiiiit...
Oh, shiiiit...
Let's go!
Help!
The monster's loose!
Now!
The control device!
Switch these two.
Now let's see what happens.
All right! It worked!
We've got one more to do!
Let's go!
Strange...Those kids were
lying, weren't they?
Where's the Super Catch Ray
firing device?
Let's change these two around.
Leave it to me!
All right!
Masao!
It's all right.
Fire the Super Catch Ray!
Over there!
Masao!
It worked perfectly!
The ray usually moves things
up into the ship.
But since we reversed the current...
It beamed us back down to earth!
That prank really saved us!
It's the spaceship!
Run!
Those kids! How did they escape?
We'll make Gamera attack them!
Order Gamera to kill them!
Gamera! Touch down! Touch down!
Gamera, attack those two boys!
Kill them!
Gamera! What are you doing?
Can't you hear?
Kill those two boys!
It's no use. Run!
All right, Gamera!
Boss!
This is the only safe room left!
Please, save us!
We beg you! Please save us!
This is the only room left!
We have to hide here!
Boss, please let us stay here!
We beg you!
Activate the transmitter!
To our mother star, Viras...
We cannot capture the earth
unless we kill Gamera first.
Spaceship #2 is now switching
to emergency flight.
Gamera!
The spaceship's getting away!
Gamera's brainwave control
device was smashed.
Then it's over!
Jim, let's check out their spaceship.
Okay!
We are down to our last resort.
I shall kill Gamera no matter
what happens now.
To do this, I must have all
of your lives!
But, Boss!
I get it now!
Those humans were caught by
the Super Catch Ray,
just like us.
The monsters hid themselves
in their bodies
to pose as humans.
They wore their bodies just
like suits.
Run!
Look out!
Gamera! Use your fire attack!
Gamera!
Nice shot!
Cool!
Gamera! Get closer!
Gamera! Gamera!
Gamera!
Gamera! Gamera!
Gamera!
Gamera, it's coming at you!
Go, Gamera!
Gamera!
Gamera, use your jets!
Gamera, what's going on?
Go, Gamera! Go!
That's the last we'll see of Viras!
All right! Gamera won!
Masao!
Sis!
Nice work, Boys.
You put your pranks to good
use for once.
But for your practical jokes,
no dinner for you two tonight!
Nice work, Jim!
It's Gamera!
Goodbye!
Goodbye, Gamera!
Goodbye!
Thank you, Gamera!
Goodbye!
THE END
