What monster movie is this?

Okay, watching the local "free" channel (public access channel) and it's playing a monster movie that looks to be from the 60s. Badly dubbed. lol

A monster, similar to Godzilla but looks like a turtle is fighting aliens. Two of aliens are pretty Japanese women wearing silver and orange suits. Two boys are in it, so far, and say the aliens want to eat humans. The transporter the boys use are triangular in shape.

The film in question is Gamera Vs. Great Evil Beast Guillon, released in 1969. It was originally seen in the US, slightly edited, as Attack of the Monsters (with the "Gamera March" song edited out, not to mention the "Space Gyaos" getting further brutally chopped up by Guillon!), released to TV by American International TV (AIP-TV). The AIP-TV dub is WAAAY superior to Daiei's international dub that Sandy Frank used for his print of the movie.

I remember seeing this as a kid on ABC's "4:30 Movie" program back in the Bronx! Ah, those were the days!
 
Good god! I remember watching that Gamera movie when I was young! On VHS, when some video company called, 'Just for Kids' released that, among other Japanese-import (though, dubbed) goodies! :laugh:

Oh the memories....
