Gezora is goofy as shit and probably the worst monster suit of the Showa era.

I love it. Space Amoeba is such a trip.

For some reason, Toho loves to include him as apart of various merchandise or in games. He's incredibly derpy, it's hilarious, but in an oddly good way. Don't mind him at all. Probably one of the very few monsters I could live with not reappearing in a movie again, if only because his original design is very amusing, and so he doesn't get an unfitting modern makeover.

I really need to see this movie. As for why he's in so many games, the goofy look is charming.

Gezora is an odd one, but he's allright. He poses the biggest threat of all the monsters, so that makes up for his funny suit.

Space Amoeba is probably the only Showa SPX output, and certainly the only Honda film, I'd offer up for a purely ironic watch.

It is a hilarious, amazing movie to watch with a group, international dub on. Played straight it doesn't offer much, but it's kind of charming.
