Negadon: The Monster from Mars (2005)

An entirely computer-generated (without using any live-action images) monster film (about 25 minutes) independently produced by CG (computer graphics) creator Jun Awazu, who loves Japanese Tokusatsu (special effects) monster films of the Showa (Japan's traditional era name. 1926-1988) era, including "Godzilla, King of the Monsters" (1954), and Heisei (1989-) "Gamera" trilogy. The story is set in Showa Year 100 (2025). A giant space monster from Mars, Negadon invades Tokyo. A middle age man and an authority on robotics, Ryuichi Narasaki rises up against Negadon, manipulating a giant, humanoid general-purpose robot named Miroku (MI-6) No.2. The images with realistic touches, which simulate the motif, film texture and color tone of Showa Tokusatsu, are impressive and worth seeing. The original story, screenplay and direction by Jun Awazu. The music and sound effect by Shingo Terasawa. Produced by Jun Awazu and CoMix Wave. Screened at the Tokyo International Fantastic Film Festival 2005.
