Gamera vs. Zigra / Gamera Super Monster Directed by: Noriaki Yuasa Written by: Nisan Takahashi Starring: Kôji Fujiyama, Daigo Inoue and Reiko Kasahara / Mach Fumiake, Yaeko Kojima and Yoko Komatsu Depending on who you are and what your past Gamera experience is like, Gamera Super Monster could be the single greatest giant monster epic ever. How could it not be? Gamera challenges six foes, goes on his own rampage, and saves the planet from something that looks like, but is certainly not due to legal issues, a Star Destroyer.

It's a very mixed bag this week for horror title releases. We're not sure how Dread-worthy the supernatural drama Hereafter (directed by Clint Eastwood and starring Matt Damon, Bryce Dallas Howard and Jay Mohr) is but have included it because of its afterlife aspects.
On the list you'll also find a couple of schlocky monster movies, one a double-feature of classic Gamera entries and the other from the Syfy channel featuring Sharktopus (a sea creature that is both a shark and an octopus) with an over-acting Eric Roberts. In addition Syfy is releasing its mockbuster Battle of Los Angeles to take advantage of the current Aliens-Invading-Los-Angeles craze.
Hereafter
Directed by Clint Eastwood
Starring Matt Damon, Bryce Dallas Howard, Jay Mohr, Cécile de France, Frankie McLaren, George McLaren
George is a blue-collar American with a special connection to the afterlife dating from his childhood. French journalist Marie has a near-death experience that shakes her reality.
