Giant Monsters of the South Seas (ゲゾラ・ガニメ・カメーバ 決戦! 南海の大怪獣 "Gezora Ganime Kameba Kessen! Nankai no Kaijuu"?)), is a 1970 Japanese Science Fiction/Kaiju film produced and released by Toho Studios. Directed by Ishirō Honda, and featuring special effects by Sadamasa Arikawa, the film starred Kenji Sahara and Yoshio Tsuchiya.

The film was released theatrically in the USA in the Summer of 1971 by American International Pictures as Yog Monster from Space.
