When heads of state gather at the G8 summit in Japan, Guilala -- the intergalactic monster that had been banished from the earth in The X from Outer Space -- returns to ravage the Japanese countryside and threaten the world leaders. Military strikes prove futile against the beast, but a reporter learns that one rural community possesses a strange ritual that might influence the creature. Minoru Kawasaki directs this campy satire.

У вас звонит мобильный телефон. Но вместо привычного сигнала — странная незнакомая мелодия. Вы не успеваете ответить. На дисплее надпись — «1 пропущенный звонок». Номер звонившего — ваш собственный. Время звонка кажется очень странным — оно сдвинуто в будущее от сегодняшней даты ровно на три дня. На автоответчике одно сообщение. Это ваш собственный голос, ничего не значащие слова, какие-то посторонние звуки и вдруг — леденящий душу предсмертный крик. Это кажется чьей-то дурацкой шуткой, но жить вам осталось ровно три дня…

Into the bully-infested home room class struts a fearless, ceramic-masked student. Squarely confronting a gang of ruffians, it is soon discovered that behind the mask is none other than Danta, an otherwise weakling student who has heretofore been picked on relentlessly by these same bullies. Donned with his mask, however, Danta exhibits a totally other personality, lacking fear and intimidation. The other students, looking on, soon experiment with the power of masks and find to their glee that behind a facade of anonymity, they experience an overwhelming power to act without the confines of self-consciousness.
