This final installment of the recent Gamera trilogy begins with schoolgirl Ayana discovering a large egg in a cave that, according to legend, houses demons. The egg hatches into a small monster, which Ayana decides to raise and quickly develops as psychic bond with. As Ayana's monster, named Iris, grows to adulthood, the flying turtle Gamera begins to take an interest in this new potential threat. Who will be the victor in the final battle, and how much of Japan will be left standing at the end?
I've already written about the second Gamera reboot film, Attack of Legion (1996), so now we're at the last film of the trilogy. Just like the previous one, Revenge of Iris gives us some mighty impressive city destruction and chaos, and the best thing is that it's mostly practical effects. Amazing practical effects. The story isn't exactly as incredible as the effects, but it does its job and works well, I think. Watch it if you want to see giant monsters battle it out in the streets of Tokyo.
Genre: Action
