'''''Gamera: The Giant Monster''''' ('''''Giant Monster Gamera''''', or '''''Daikaiju Gamera''''') was produced and released in Japan by Daei studios in 1965. The film originally started life as a story about giant rats, but when the rats that were going to be used ended up being unuseable due to fleas and other reasons, the filmmakers retooled the script changed the monster(s) into a giant turtle. The film was shot in black and white, one of the last giant monster movies to be filmed like this, and is one of only two movies to portray '''[[Gamera]]''' in a villanous manner, with the other one being its immediate sequel, Gamera vs. Barugon. Giant Monster Gamera was directed by Noriaki Yuasa, who also directed the special effects.
