The kappa is indeed one of the most famous yokai. I first came across this creature in a book about mythology. It simply described the kappa as a creature resembling a monkey within a turtle’s shell. It also stated that the kappa’s head was hallow, and open-topped. It said that if a kappa is bothering you, all one must do is bow to the creature. It, being an oddly polite creature, will bow in return, spilling the water in its opened skull. It would then need to return to the river to replenish itself. You could take advantage of this oppurtunity to escape.

I haven’t seen the TMNT films. I have wondered if Sandy from “Monkey” was meant to be a kappa of some kind. He wore that skull cap and was often associated with water… from memory (and it goes back a ways) he was referred to as a water spirit. Of course I saw only the dubbed version so the actual word “kappa” was never going to be heard.

The set looks crude, the monster looks like a suit, and the premise is campy: it has all the makings of a great kaiju film! I’d definitely watch it.
btw, the kappa mythos made a brief appearance in Hollywood with the third TMNT live action film (1993).

^”Nezulla: The Rat Monster” wasn’t all that bad. I enjoyed it. The story was pretty cool with the virus and all and the creature was pretty neat. My only problem was with it’s pacing and lack of a decent score. It definitely felt very independent. This one however looks freakin’ awesome!!

Didn’t another bad monster movie smash Godzilla and Gamera in its trailer? I believe it was “Nezulla: the Rat Monster”, which from the trailer I decided I had know interest in seeing.

Also, Kong’s not dead (just) yet!
