The kaiju must battle! SRS Cinema has revealed a short official trailer for War of the Ninja Monsters: Jaron vs Goura, a homemade kaiju movie from Japanese filmmaker Shinpei Hayashiya. It’s set for a Blu-ray release this summer from SRS Cinema – available to pre-order already on their site now. Hayashiya has been making super low budget, modern monster battle movies for years, also of the Reigo / Raiga / Ohga series (Reigo vs. Yamato and Raiga: The Monster from the Deep Sea) before this. The ninja monsters Jaron and Goura appear in the city of Chichibu, and rival ninja clans manipulate the ninja beasts into a fierce battle. The cast and crew includes suit actros Mizuho Yoshida (Godzilla, Mothra, King Ghidorah: Giant Monsters All-Out Attack, Zeiram) and Akihiko Ohashi (Gamera 2: Attack Of Legion, Gamera 3: Revenge Iris), cinematographer / VFX / editor Masayuki Nagata, composer Yasuhiro Ueda, monster designer Shinji Nishikawa (Godzilla vs Biollante, Godzilla 2000), suit and prop makers Naofumi Kanamori and Tomohiro Matsumoto, and many others. This looks fun! I suppose the clunky look & feel is supposed to be an homage to all the classic Gojira / kaiju movies. If you love those movies, this one is for you. Have fun.
Teaser trailer for Shinpei Hayashiya’s War of the Ninja Monsters: Jaron vs Goura, from YouTube:
Two men, tired from work, visit the town of Chichibu to enjoy their favorite hobby – exploring caves. But little do they know, the town has been secretly protected by the descendants of the righteous Shinobi ninja since the Sengoku period. The two unlucky friends accidentally break a spell that awakens two colossal beasts, Jaron and Goura. The area’s rival clans manipulate them into a fierce battle, bringing chaos to the area. But a righteous female ninja steps up, wanting to stop the destruction and restore the seal. Can she defeat the evil ninjas that stand in her way before Chichibu is completely destroyed by two kaiju? War of the Ninja Monsters: Jaron vs Goura is directed by Japanese indie filmmaker Shinpei Hayashiya, director of the Kaiju movies Gamera 4: Truth, Reigo vs. Yamato, Raiga: The Monster from the Deep Sea, Rakugo Monogatari, God Raiga vs King Ohga. The screenplay is by Shinpei Hayashiya and Hirokatsu Kihara. It’s also produced by Hayashiya. With music by Yasuhiro Ueda.
