the movie starts with an expedition sent to Obelisk Island by a magazine company owner ho whants to make a tropical resort in the island, there thy find a baby monster named gappa, they take it to japan, but soon after its parents set to find its baby destroythe island including a samll village, before gooing direct to tokyo

the movie is actually preety good in a cheese kind of whay, the special efects where done by akira watanabe who had worked as an art director on many in the mysterians

the monsters are preety cool, they are not evil but are searching for their loved ones, like gorgo and mothra, they look like a cross beetween a bird and a dinosaur, they aslo shoot a blue fire breath simillar to godzilla's

good movie, but huge rip off of godzilla, though i will admit, akira watanabe's special effects were pretty good for this movie. Eiji tsuburaya trained him well. :)

Whoever is responsible for the box art or promotional poster was probably trying to capitalize on Godzilla's popularity to help Gappa do well commercially. The words imply that Gappa is a descendent of Godzilla which is false, though if Gappa is a Toho monster then the studio probably allowed some latitude with how the movie promoted itself. It doesn't help that it's weapon is very similar to Godzilla's. More pieces like this are welcome. Thanks.

Wow. I love it when the narrator says "GAPPA!"

G. H. (Gman)

Ray Burrberry,Gappa was created and released by Nikkatsu Co. Nothing to do with Toho. Back in the day both American and European distributors would use Godzilla's populatiry to advertise other monster movies. The French poster is an obvious example of trying to capatilize on that.

Also, Catzilla, Media Blasters may still own the North American distribution rights to this movie. I may have to look it up.
