Gamera: Guardian of the Universe Talkback

I apologize if this is old news, but I recently heard there is a version of this movie released in the UK, with a large portion of its soundtrack replaced with rave/electronica music.

It was released on video and DVD. The DVD is region free (but PAL) and was included as a freebie with PlayNation magazine. It’s every bit as bad as it looks from that clip: the rave music obviously doesn’t work with this movie and the bits of the original score that are retained are poorly reincorporated. The dubbing is very dry and boring.

I know this is unrelated, but this is the exact feeling I feel when I try to watch the Sandy Frank dub of G-Force (Gatchaman), which was on cartoon network in the Mid 90's (out of place base rock tempo on permanent repeat, often drowning out the original great music score). Ironically it was his same production company that produced the original "Battle of the Planets" dub in the late 70's, which, while it is less accurate to the original Japanese scripts, and contains its own original (awkward) animated sequences, has way better music, and an epic voice acting cast.

^ Sandy Frank did the G-force dub as well? I had no idea.

Hands down the best of the trilogy. There's just a good mix of fun and seriousness. The characters are likable, and doesn't go anime on us. Yeah, the effects are nowhere near as good as the later 2, but this is a much more well made and balanced movie.
