It Came From Beneath The Sea
It Came From Beneath The Sea
Stars: Ken Tobey, Faith Domergue, Donald CurtisDirector: Robert Gordon
Summary: A submarine commander and a group of scientists try to destroy a giant sea monster before it claims any more lives...
An atomic submarine cruising the Pacific Ocean discovers a gargantuan octopus concealed in the ocean depths. By the time they figure out that the monster is the nasty byproduct of a hydrogen bomb experiment gone awry, the creature is already well on its way to destroying San Francisco. The sea creature is yet another fantastic example of masterful stop-motion animation from the technique's master, Ray Harryhausen.

It Came from Beneath the Seaappeared two years after Ray Harryhausen unleashed The Beast from 20,000 Fathomsupon New York City. This time the master special-effects creator turned loose a giant (albeit six-armed) octopus on San Francisco, and the result is another enjoyable atom-age adventure that should please fans of vintage science fiction. Kenneth Tobey, who battled The Thing (From Another World)in 1951, stars as a Navy captain pursuing a monstrous octopoid (sextapoid?) after it attacks his atomic sub. After it wreaks havoc with shipping lanes, he tracks the creature to San Francisco for a final showdown. Scripting by George Worthing Yates (Them) and Hal Smith and direction by Robert Gordon are perfunctory at best, which gives the always-reliable Tobey and costar Faith Domergue little to do, but this is Harryhausen's show, and his monster, though the budget was restrained, is still impressive. Younger audiences weaned on digital FX may find this creaky, but nostalgic viewers will enjoy its simple thrills. --Paul Gaita
