    In director Robert Gordon's 1955 sci-fi adventure, a gigantic, irradiated octopus rises from the ocean's greatest depths to unleash a tidal wave of terror on San Francisco. Featuring fantastic stop-motion animation from special effects master Ray Harryhausen, It Came From Beneath the Sea is a classic from the Golden Age of monster movies and rarely seen in 35mm on the big screen.

In his pubished paper of the same name, Prof. LaBarerba explores issues ranging from why a real-life Mothra would have breathing problems to who would really win in a battle between an Incredible Shrinking Man and a giant tarantula!
