* TailfinWalking: Ambiguous: it's not clear if Zigra is able to grow legs or if he is just standing on his fins. The puppet Zigra with the tail and the costume Zigra with a human actor inside switch between shots so it's hard to tell.

The seventh installment of the Showa-era '''Film/{{Gamera}}''' films. Earth is invaded by inhabitants of the planet Zigra, a water breathing race that wants to use humankind as a food source. It’s up to Gamera and a handful of children in the thick of it to save the day. Daiei Studios filed for bankruptcy shortly after the release of this film, leading to a nine-year hiatus until the eighth and final Showa Gamera film would be released.
