Review of The Giant Behemoth (1959) by Bob W — 18 May 2015
A giant Loch Ness-like like dinosaur monster created by nuclear bomb testing terrorizes England. The film is a pretty slow build up to the end when the stop motion monster finally attacks London. Most of the film is scientists talking and little glimpses of the monster.
Where Steven Spielberg turned this formula into a blockbuster with "Jaws" and "Jurassic Park" he succeeded by making the build up to finally showing the monster actually interesting, whereas with this film and my of it's ilk are a slow and boring waiting game until the action finally begins.
