Running the Gammatar


When you are a self-absorbed 20-something with a huge sense of entitlement little is going to get in the way of the centering of life, the universe and everything around Number One.

That includes the Gammatar, the giant, fire-breathing Japanese monster (Jabba the Hutt must have had a fling with Godzilla, methinks) which has been bringing terror and barbecue to the streets of the city for months.  Written and Directed by Joe Kramer, Running the Gammatar is as much about monstrous egos as it as about the monster. It's also wry, funny, perceptive and doesn't take itself at all seriously (well, we're in trouble if it does), in striking opposition to its protagonists.
