Gamera vs. Viras

Gamera vs. Viras (1968) is a Japanese kaiju adventure you can watch online on iFILM. The giant flying turtle once again defends Earth when the alien Viras race sends its ships to colonize the planet.

Gamera wrecks the first invasion easily, so the aliens get clever — they clamp a mind-control device onto the turtle and take two Boy Scouts hostage after the boys swipe a mini-submarine. Saving the world and stopping the colossal squid-like Viras comes down to these kids. Directed by Noriaki Yuasa, this fourth Gamera outing leans family-friendly: child heroes, goofy gadgets and full-size rubber monsters trading blows. For anyone who grew up on old-school Godzilla, it's a cheerful, gloriously silly slice of vintage sci-fi. Stream Gamera vs. Viras online on iFILM.
