| Overview: | From director Minoru Kawasaki ("The Calamari Wrestler", "Executive Koala", "The World Sinks Except Japan").
In 2008, the G8 summit is being held at Lake Toya near a volcano in Hokkaido. While the world leaders are meeting there, a Chinese rocket causes the monstrous Girara to be born. Those in charge of the G8 nations, in an effort to improve the standing of their governments, implement individual plans to destroy the monster, all of which end in failure.
As the leaders continue their posturing, two journalists stumble across a cult and a mysterious idol by the lake. Could that discovery be the key to dealing with the problem of Girara?
Giant monster mayhem meets slapstick comedy in this modern-day parody sequel to the 1967 cult classic "The X From Outer Space", featuring Girara, the giant monster featured in TV commercials for The Ladders website.
