Teaser - Deep Sea Monster Raiga

The followup to Shinpei Hayashiya‘s 2005 daikaiju movie “Deep Sea Monster Reigo” (which actually wasn’t released until this past August) will be coming out in mid-2009. The original film was set during World War II and involved the battleship Yamato being attacked by a giant monster called Reigo in the middle of the Pacific Ocean. Deep Sea Monster Raiga is set 60 years later in modern-day Tokyo. Global warming causes the southern polar ice cap to gradually melt, disrupting the ecosystem and luring ancient sea monsters to Japan. Eventually an enormous sea beast called Raiga enters Asakusa via the Sumida River and begins wreaking havoc on the buildings there. And, for legal purposes, that ain’t Godzilla!
