The one-foot high ladies have been kidnapped from their remote island in the South Seas and taken to Japan, where they are now a sideshow attraction. However, the twins have supernatural powers and cry out for help from the huge caterpillar that has hatched back on their island. The giant insect comes to Tokyo, where it causes mass devastation.
