<\/a> <\/p>\nThat’s right \u2013 MST3K is riffing another Gamera movie! <\/p>\n
And not just any Gamera movie: “Gamera vs. Jiger” is by far the most ambitious and outrageous Gamera I\u2019ve ever seen in my long life of movie riffing. <\/p>\n
For starters, the setting is not only a tropical island which has its own kaiju god named Jiger \u2013 a brownish greyish triceratops that shoots poisonous quills from her face \u2013 but also at the 1970 World\u2019s Fair in Suita, Osaka Prefecture, Japan, which is going on at the same time! <\/p>\n
So yeah, you\u2019re gonna get some fights on the land, sea, sky, and at the World\u2019s Fair, all featuring the flying turtle taking on Jiger … but then, one of Jiger’s darts causes Gamera to fall asleep and turn gray, after which he ends up submerged in the ocean with his mouth hanging open. Then, two ambitious kids drive a mini-sub into Gamera’s mouth, and fight a baby Jiger that\u2019s living inside Gamera like a virus. And then more things happen, but I kinda lose track at that point. <\/p>\n
Anyway, it’s all pretty amazeballs, and to tell you the truth, we never thought we’d be able to get the rights we needed to riff this movie… so I’m thrilled that we’re finally going to have the chance. And you know, I’m also betting this will end up being the “premiere episode” that opens Season 13 and launches the Gizmoplex… hopefully by the end of this year!<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
