After laying dormant for fifteen years, Gamera was rebooted for the big screen in a smash hit trilogy masterminded by director Shusuke Kaneko (Necronomicon), writer Kazunori Ito (Ghost in the Shell) and SFX director Shinji Higuchi (who went on to co-direct Shin Godzilla). Trading the campy kid-friendly surrealism of the earlier films for a darker, more realistic tone and jaw-dropping innovative special effects, the "Heisei trilogy" are still regarded today as three of the best - if not the very best - kaiju films ever made. This unmissable trio is complimented by a bonus disc featuring Gamera the Brave, a heartwarming mix of family-friendly adventure and cutting-edge kaiju action that is the most recent Gamera film to date.

Tokyo Shock | 2006 | 96 min | Not rated | Jan 22, 2013 | Brian Orndorf
A young boy named Toru (Ryo Tomioka) is walking along the beach when he discovers a most unusual egg. When the egg hatches to reveal an adorable flying turtle, Toru names the creature "Toto" and attempts to hide it from his estranged father, still grief-stricken over the recent loss of his beloved wife. Though all evidence points to "Toto" being a baby Gamera, Toru refuses to believe the truth until the appearance of an enormous creature named Zedus unleashes the rapidly-growing terrapin's latent superpowers. Now, as Zedus carves a swath of destruction all across Tokyo, Toto's true identity is revealed and the two enormous monsters face off in an earth-shaking battle. One of the first kaiju films ever to be penned by a woman (Yukari Tatsui wrote the screenplay), Gamera the Brave is the twelfth entry in the long running Gamera film series.
