This movie combines an eye-popping color pallet and simple but captivating special effects; documentary-like inserts of what are presumably Vietnam and World War II tinted still-photo inserts; striking political commentary on the US and Japan, war profiteering, and the military industrial complex; amid the classic generic features of an alien invasion thriller. A true product of its time which has become all the more fascinating with the passage of time.
Kyuketsuki Gokemidoro is a highly entertaining, surreal, anti-war, apocalyptic, sci-fi horror.
