DEATH OF A CORRUPT MAN 1977 LEGENDS OF DINOSAURS AND MONSTER BIRDS 1977

The creature continues to subtly terrorize the community and devours two more women, including Junko, whose death is witnessed by Akiko and their pet dog. His theory proves correct when a Plesiosaurus really does appear and devours some local pranksters during a festival outside.

He decides that the creature must be a living Plesiosaurus and shares his minimal proof and hypothesis with a very skeptical Shohei. The following day, Takashi sits in his father's cabin and develops a possible theory as to what type of creature could have killed the horse and placed the remains in a tree for safekeeping. His theory gains credence when Junko stumbles upon a headless horse-corpse lying in the road, and Takashi later finds it lodged in a tree while taking photographs of some strange tracks in the mud. Takashi begins developing a theory that a dinosaur is alive and well in Saiko Lake. A young couple in a paddle boat disappear without a trace, an injured diver is pulled from the lake and livestock begin to mysteriously vanish.

Meanwhile, other bizarre things start happening around the Saiko Lake community. As he cruises through the nearby village, he greets two women named Akiko, a former lover of his, and Junko. Takashi quickly gets back to fossil-hunting and heads toward the Jukai once again. He later awakens in his father's old cabin near Saiko Lake, and discovers that he was rescued by Shohei Muku, an old friend of the family. When he arrives at the small village bordering Fuji's Saiko Lake, Takashi immediately heads into the heavily forested Jukai when a sudden earthquake occurs and he is knocked out. Upon hearing about the fossilized egg, Takashi sets off to Mount Fuji to find it. Her story airs on a televised news report that is seen by geologist Takashi Ashizawa. Before falling into a coma, the girl babbles about what she saw to a reporter. When one of the eggs start to hatch, she goes into hysterics and flees until she is discovered by a construction crew. A young woman wanders barefoot in the lush Aokigahara (青木ヶ原), also known as the Sea of Trees (樹海 Jukai) region of Mount Fuji, and suddenly falls into a cavern, awakening in an icy cave full of large eggs.
