I was so disgusted with Ed Gein's series that I wanted to erase the bad taste in my mouth with Pacific Rim, that masterpiece directed by Guillermo del Toro. So, in honor of the affection I have for that film, this fancast tells what would have happened if they had made this movie a couple of decades ago. When enormous monsters known as Kaijus emerge from the ocean, humanity builds colossal robots called Jaegers, controlled by two mentally connected pilots, to defend themselves. After suffering great losses, a veteran pilot and a rookie are recruited to pilot a Jaeger in the final battle that could determine the fate of the world.
