Gappa the Trifibian Monster Movie Review

Journalists and scientists visiting a tropical island find a giant egg. It hatches a baby monster and they take it back to Tokyo with them, dismaying the baby's giant monster parents. The birdlike pair come to town to rescue baby, leaving a wake of destruction. Nearly a direct remake of the British film Gorgo, and a weak one at that. Dubbed. AKA: Daikyoju Gappa; Monster from a Prehistoric Planet.
