This particular lost project,
Nessie(
http://www.tohokingdom.com/cutting_room/nessie.htm), one of those sadly "never happened" projects that never materialized sadly.

Especially considering the particular beast this flick was too be based upon, the Loch Ness Monster, one of the world's most famous cryptids, has never seemed to get any decent treatment cinematically. This flick was a joint production between Toho, and Hammer Pictures. The studio known for its legendary horror pictures. However the House That Dripped Blood's own myriad of finacial problems, and numerous delays in getting filming started. Caused the flick to be dropped. Although Toho effects guru, Terusyoshi Nakano, even constructed a prop for the rampaging cryptid.
This cool bugger, still got some work in 1987's
Princess of the Moon. Some of what was revealed to occur in
Nessie sounded interesting. From underwater ruins, and in Nessie's leaving its familiar surroundings in the Loch, the monster commiting acts of destruction to an oil rig. This sounded leaps and bounds better than such attempts of fillmaking involving Nessie such as
The Loch Ness Horror,
Beneath Loch Ness, or SyFy's usual crapporama,
Beyond Loch Ness. Thoughts on this. Do you think it would've been neat-o late 70's nature gone amok flicks like
JAWS,
PIRANHA, or
ALLIGATOR ? Or Roger Corman's
Up From The Depths ?
