Giant Behemoth

About this movie

As in his classic The Beast from 20,000 Fathoms, director Eugene Lourie plunges us into a thrilling stomping ground, unleashing another Thunder Lizard to stomp on everything in sight. Alarming levels of radiation have infused the water, plants and skies, and a radiated paleosaurus rises from the ocean depths. In its path: London. In its arsenal: a strength to topple buildings (King Kong’s Willis O’Brien contributes rampaging stop-motion effects), a stride that flattens cars, a flesh-searing radioactive ray and a ticked-off attitude. Left in ruins on land, humankind takes the fight to the beast’s undersea realm, where a two-man submarine crew must ensure the torpedo they fire is dead-on. The first chance is all anyone gets with The Giant Behemoth.

Ratings and reviews

Reminds me of Godzilla and a Brontosaurus mixed together make a part 2 or he's bigger with a long very long neck and I mean very very very long a longer and bigger arms and legs in part 3 of the movie make humongous then everybody would be super duper scared make his spikes on the back way more Sharp make his claws way more Sharp and last but not least make his teeth long and big and sharp

Enjoyed. I love these 50s sci fi and horror movies. Especially the ones that Ray Harryhausen was involved with.

The British version of The Beast From 20,000 Fathoms, a giant radioactive Brontosaurus that makes Godzilla proud...
