"Legend of the Dinosaurs and Monster Birds" Blu-ray - A masterpiece of 70's special effects monster movies revived in high definition

An ancient secret lies dormant at the foot of Mount Fuji, and giant prehistoric creatures have awakened... The long-awaited "Legend of the Dinosaur and the Monster Bird" (original title: Kyoryu Kaicho no Densetsu), released in 1977, has now been released on Blu-ray. Directed by Junji Kurata, this work inherits the tradition of Japanese special effects monster movies, but is also highly regarded as a unique work with its own unique worldview.

A legendary dinosaur story set at the foot of Mount Fuji

The story is set near the mysterious Mount Fuji and depicts the adventures of geologist Takashi Ashizawa (played by Tsunehiko Watase), who visits the area in search of dinosaur fossils, and his ex-girlfriend, photographer Akiko (played by Toshiko Sawa).
Legends of dinosaurs have long thrived in this region, and rumors of large reptiles still circulate today.
As the pair search for treasure, a sudden change in the weather awakens the plesiosaurs that inhabit the lake, who begin attacking anyone who ventures into the water. Even more terrifying, a pterosaur is about to hatch in the mountain's ice caves.
The explorers find themselves unexpectedly drawn into a fierce battle between giant prehistoric creatures.

Visual beauty and special effects unique to the 1970s

The appeal of this film lies in the visual beauty and unique atmosphere typical of the 1970s, as well as monster action featuring classic special effects.
In an era when CG was not commonplace, the special effects techniques used actual miniature sets and elaborately crafted monster models have a unique charm that is different from modern technology.
The threat of dinosaurs, unfolding alongside delicate depictions of nature, has a unique appeal that sets it apart from modern monster movies dominated by special effects.
