This monster just isn't in a talking mood! Oh yes, Behemoth *will* live again! .that's another story for another review. Texture runs high, resolving facial definition and other intricate elements. The line about Japanese fish is outright insulting. Well at the time in 8th grade when I saw this film on AMC I thought it was good but didn't think much of it. Watched under it's original title "Behemoth the Sea Monster". & 40 some seconds almost 80 mins. The film does a much better job in detailing the scientific investigation that methodically uncovers the nature of the beast than most films - past or present. Destruction includes the corner of one building and dual electrical towers. Celebrating 60 years in 2019, Giant Behemoth rises to the level of giant monster curiosity, left to stop motion die-hards and those fascinated by nuclear cinema. 10 Favorites .
And also has 1958 for the release year when it actually was released until 1959.
The Giant Behemoth (1959) is finally out on DVD from Warner Home Video came out on June 26, 2007 in Widescren 1.85:1 like The Laserdisc was. The Giant Behemoth is Eugène Lourié's second giant monster film, and unusually for the genre this one is set in England. Unlike 'Beast' and 'Gorgo' (as well as Godzilla and the others), this Behemoth not only was a huge creature, but also had the ability to project 'electrified fields of radiation', causing people to literally burn to death. When the scene goes back to wide angle, the car door is wide open again.
Respectable But Run of the Mill Creature Feature. The story line is much like a myriad of other films of the era (and very much like 'Beast...") but this one is a cut above. Sadly, neither of those demographics get what they came for. It's not only radioactive but has an electric charge that sends out the radiation. Giant Behemoth tries to insinuate religious subtext. Modern effects men Dennis Muren and Phil Tippett provide a mocking commentary (not undeserved) with plenty of dead air. Monster attacks London!" Another scientist concurs with Karnes – they had to throw away boatloads of fish in Japan, he says. Man's nuclear testing has raised a radioactive dinosaur out of the depths. See you then. The effects are simply stunning. It is actually 79 mins.

Reportedly, the producers wanted Lourié' to steal from his earlier but better monster picture "The Beast from 20,000 Fathoms" instead trying to scare audiences with a blinding blob of a monster. Finally, with today's concern about radioactive waste & it's effect on the enviorment, this film was fifty years ahead of it's time!! The original review follows].

Doctor: her comment stayed with Lourie and a few years later when he directed GORGO he . Things turn a bit rough for the score (credited to Edwin Astley).
I first saw this movie when I was 9 years old and it was the scariest movie I'd ever seen. Let me quickly begin by putting to rest once and for all a terrible error that is popping up everywhere concerning this film: THE GIANT BEHEMOTH was not, repeat NOT, "co-directed" by Mr Douglas Hickox. As it took me back to my childhood.
They all are; but it was very entertaining. Yeah, if one were picky they could say the stop-motion effects (from King Kong effects man Willis O'Brien) are not as well done as Ray Harryhausen's or the pacing is a bit slow at times.
I vividly recall the scenes of terrified people running from the monster and being melted by the radiation waves emitted by the beast! Looking back, my fave scene was the two car thieves being tossed into the Thames in their stolen car by Behemoth! It was solely directed from start to finish by Eugene Lourie, a director (and production designer) of taste and imagination.
