While the search is on for the eggs, a Plesiosaur starts to attack, eating people and animals. A geologist, Takashi Ashizawa (screen legend Tsunehiko Watase, Battles Without Honor and Humanity, The Incident, Virus) hears about the fossilized egg and goes Mount Fuji to find it.

A young girl who was wondering around the area and fell into the cave was a witness to one of the eggs hatching and talks about it on television. The film basically is about two prehistoric dinosaurs that hatch from giant eggs that were buried in the caverns in Mount Fuji.

The Toei Company had also produced House of Terrors, Yongary, Monster from the Deep, and The Green Slime on their resumeprior to Legend of Dinosaurs and Monster Birds so you know what to expect! In 1977, Toei distributed Legend of Dinosaurs and Monster Birds, known as North America as The Legend of Dinosaurs, which falls somewhere between decent and cheesy. During the 1970’s budgets for Kaiju films had plummeted to the point where the movies were made as cheaply as possible. I have always been a fan of giant monster movies, whether they are classics or cheesy, especially the ones made in Japan.
