Ebirah – Terror of the Deep (1966)
Director: Jun Fukuda
Movie review
From Time Out Film Guide
The film's title notwithstanding, the real star of this Toho production is Godzilla, who - with the aid of another friendly monster, Mothra - puts paid to Ebirah ('an enormous crab' that looks very much like a boiled lobster) and the hordes of The Red Bamboo, a SMERSH-like organisation intent on world domination, and rescues various humans in distress.Author: PH
