Kaiju appears in Tokyo! (1998 movie)

[Electric Dragon]

I just stumbled upon this film on the internet:





Have anybody seen this movie?

A comment on imdb says:
A large, dinosaur-like monster has risen from Tokyo Bay and attacked the city. As the government collapses into chaos, the people of a rural town in Fukui Prefecture, from whose perspective we see the entire movie, watch as the events unfold on TV. Some decide to run for their lives, some take it as a sign of the apocalypse, some go completely crazy, but most of the townspeople wait and watch, and wonder where the monster will head next.

It's available on dvd anyway:

Yeah, i heard about this a while ago. Sounds like a very interesting and new perspective for a kaiju film. I imagine there's very little if any kaiju scenes. Mostly dramatic tension and realism. I'd love to see it.

There are no kaiju scenes at all. The whole film is about the everyday person's reaction to a (unseen) monster attack.

Personally, I think it sounds really damned boring...to each their own, though.

The only reviewer at amazon.co.jp says it is a very funny comedy anyway.

But since it lacks kaiju fights I don't think I will go to extreme lengths to incorparate it into my kaiju dvd library.
It has Tomoro Taguchi and Koji Tsukamoto (younger brother of Shinya) in it, by the way.
