It is directed by Noriaki Yuasa and written by Nisan Takahashi. It is the third film in the Gamera franchise and the first Gamera film to feature the Kaiju character Gyaos, who would later become Gamera's most popular rival to date as the character would later be used for Gamera: Guardian of the Universe, Gamera 3: The Revenge of Iris and Gamera the Brave.
