"It Came From Beneath The Sea" (1955)
-Kenneth Tobey

Plot: IMDB
A Giant Octopus, whose feeding habits have been affected by radiation from H-Bomb tests, rises from the Mindanao Deep to terrorize the California Coast.

Phantom's Review: One of those great fun 1950's monster movies.

-- The stop-motion animation by Ray Harryhausen is excellent, despite the fact that the movie's low budget made the octopus have six tentacles instead of eight.
The cast is lead by 50's sci-fi regulars Kenneth Tobey (The Thing From Another World, The Beast From 20,000 Fathoms), Faith Domergue (This Island Earth) and Donald Curtis (Earth vs the Flying Saucers). A love triangle develops with these stars to keep the movie going.
If you love cheesy fun monster movies,then sit back and watch this one. You'll; have a lot of fun.

The original '51 Thing with James Arness and other folks...

Hadn't seen it in quite a while so it was interesting to check back in with it again and see if I noticed anything different. I thought the doctor who was trying to keep the creature alive was more funny this time around. Almost like, the more serious he got about his motives, the more I chuckled about it.

But I still totally dug it!
