Darren Bousman on

The Beast From 20,000 Fathoms

Released 1953
Distributor Warner Bros.

FX maestro Ray Harryhausen’s first solo gig is a modestly budgeted indie that made a huge splash when picked up by Warner Bros. Director Eugene Lourie essentially remade this film twice, once as The Giant Behemoth, and again as Gorgo. This zippy trailer is very heavy on atomic paranoia. Look for Merv Griffin and Vera Miles in bits.
