  • The first US manned space flight from Venus crash lands in Sicily causing them to lose their precious cargo of reptilian eggs retrieved from the planet's surface. An Italian zoologist recovers the eggs and watches as one hatches into a rapidly-growing monster. The shocking giant lizard grows so enormous that it threatens the entire city of Rome. The zoologist's American granddaughter Marisa and returned astronaut Calder must battle with the American and Italian military to corral the creature before it destroys everything in its path.

    A high end movie in 1957. Filmed on location in Italy with real helicopters and airplanes plus the best special effects of the time. The stop animation or "clay-mation" as we called it is superb. With no digital cameras or computers it was done using clay figures moved and reanimated frame by frame with film cameras. FYI - Godzilla came out in 1954 using a different method with elaborate models and miniatures destroyed by a guy in a rubber suit. That must have been a fun job.

      @NewtonDKC Před rokem +16

      So glad to see others feeling the same way I am at watching this. The poor creature wasn’t vicious at all (though it would understandable if he was!) - he was just scared and hungry, and probably very confused at the strange place he’s in (I’m assuming he was a baby and hatched from the gelatinous egg thing?). The dog attacked it first, and even then the creature waited before finally punching it - for all we know the dog is just unconscious. But even the astronaut guy tells everyone it isn’t dangerous unless provoked - and so immediately provokes it with a big pointy stick! How about you humans think and put some Oates in the cart and give it some quiet time to go in and eat, then Quietly shut the gate (not that I want it to be mistreated by scientists either!). But no, let’s threaten it and scare it even more, when quiet and calm gestures and offerings of Coates would have done wonders. Even then it only attacks after being stabbed in the back with a freaking pitchfork! And is then shot multiple times and just runs away. Not a violent or dangerous “beast’ at all. The sad part is this is how humans have typically acted in real life - attack first, kill, maim, wound, before considering or trying better options. Considering humans do these terrible things not only to different species but even other humans, I suppose it’s ridiculous to expect any better. If aliens somehow watch this stuff, then zero reason to wonder why they don’t make contact even if the government is gradually admitting to their presence. I just hope they realize some humans are peaceful and would never harm or be aggressive to peaceful others. And even tho this is a work of fiction, the fact that many of us can still empathize and call out when other humans are acting horribly gives me hope. Congrats fellow good and kind people! :-)

    Now i realize where they got the idea of the beginning of Planet of the Apes with Charlton Heston…this opening scene of the rocket crashing into the sea… 😊

    66 años después de su estreno este clásico me sigue cautivando como en mi niñez y sintiendo pena por la criatura que solo intenta sobrevivir en un mundo muy lejano y hostil.

      E a criatura só queria comer o seu enxofre e viver em paz.
      A paranóia e o belicismo dos homens mataram a criatura!

    GREAT movie! I watch this every time it‘s shown…some of those old sci-fi movies were AWESOME! This….“THEM“, the original „The Day the Earth Stood Still“ are just a few. Thanks for showing this! Cheers

    One of my Favorite Ray Harryhausen films. The Ymir was such a Vivid Character in this Film. He was the Star of the Movie.

    I'm impressed, with this classic creature si- fi film, the Ymir creture deserves a reboot film of its own, or an addition to the Monsterverse

    There were many fine stop motion animators, but only one Harryhausen. He was the greatest.

    It's funny that this movie and The Deadly Mantis were the only 2 movies I ever saw with William Hopper where he went up against 2 different giant monsters one from the Planet Venus and the other an oversized giant prehistoric bug man talk about weird.

    Really feel sorry for the creature in this flick. All alone trying to survive on an alien planet. How terrifying & confusing for it. Still, it was a terrifying & very dangerous creature that couldn't be allowed to live here.

    Good to see Mr. Hopper. His mother was quite a well known person in Hollywood. She was the famous gossip columnist Heda Hopper. There was a quote supposedly attributed to her , “if you don’t have something nice to say about someone come sit beside me.”

    Although I didn't stay to see the whole show, it's not because I didn't like it. Actually, I have this on DVD and just wanted to take a peek. However, I do agree that it's a great classic, one of the best. If you haven't seen it, stick around. You'll enjoy it.

    I’m 99.9% certain the creators of the 60s animated show Jonny Quest used the elephant’s roar from this film to voice the pterodactyl in the episode, “Turu the Terrible.”

    One of the few action figures I ever bought is a quite nice little Ymir sculpt. I have it in my living room. Excluding the obnoxious child this is a fun film with some of Harryhausen's neatest character bits, starting with baby Ymir reacting to the light after hatching.

    In another deleted scene of 20,million miles to earth the Ymir at the Giardino zoologico had accidentally entered a lion cage and was startled to see a ferocious lion the 2 creatures fought each other and in the end the Ymir had mainly killed the Lion

    My great grandmother had 3 stacked TVs, one with picture, one with sound and the other that had the signal. An old and fragile native american (Saponi) lady who had the biggest crush on Ray Harryhausen and the cooking skills of a drunken moose. She played old monster movies and only monster movies on her setup. Her husband was one of the guys who made the Spruce Goose and developed some cool rockets I got to play with as a kid who also introduced me to the joys of machining. Growing up with that lead me to my jobs as an aerospace engineer and game designer for a live action DnD game. I'd still like to use my Stan Winston School of Character Arts training, but meh, I'm happy. Bless the parents of Ray for giving our world his talents.

    Notice, the Ymir didn't threaten any of the animals it encountered, didn't harm the little lamb, making it's way to the barn. Where it opened a bag of grain to eat. The humans assumed it was a predator, and struck the first blow...39:00 evidence shows it was a veggie..
