This week on Demolition Daiei, we're going to the beach, hijacking a submarine, using our lassos and getting abducted by aliens! Gamera vs Viras is a weird, wild, and uh... lengthy endeavor and we're here to discuss our findings. As we wade deeper into the ocean that is our turtley friends' adventures, are we still going to wear our good time hats, or are they gonna be lost to the tide? Join us and find out!

Episode 34: Gamera vs Gyaos (1967) feat. BusterCorp

Our pal Buster nobly joins us on short notice to talk about the third and most batty of Gamera installments, Gamera vs Gyaos! We talk with Buster about their relationship with tokusatsu as a whole, and then dive into a brief, fun discussion of this moment of coalescence for our fire-breathing turtle. We talk about the weird vampire bat guy he throws a rock at too. Don't think for a second we forgot about that.

Enjoy the episode and stay tuned next time for... GAMERA VS VIRAS!

Episode 36: Gamera vs Guiron (1969) feat. Alex Horab

Alex Horab joins us once again for perhaps the most infamous movie in the Gamera series to all those well-versed in schlock, and the ensuing conversation is one filled with a lot of enthusiasm for the deeply goofy movie Daiei made here. While it may retread a lot of ground, we dig into the things that make it stand out while making some really dumb jokes of our own. This is also the movie where that one gif is from. Y'know, with the pterodactyl guy accidentally cutting his leg off.
