Running the Gammatar is a lovely story about a young couple trying to negotiate a relationship while their city is being terrorized by a giant fire-breathing monster. It’s like rom-com meets Japanese monster movie, except this monster is uglier than any version of Godzilla, and his name is Gammatar. Joe Kramer’s short film is a comedy about a group of self-centered 20-somethings trying to have the time of their life in a city under constant attack from a giant, Godzilla/Gojira look-a-like Japanese monster.
