A nuclear submarine, brilliant scientists, and a showdown on a national landmark between the plucky military man and an odd number limbed foe? This film has everything to be the latest and the greatest monster mash, but can it follow up on the Beast? This week we are back to Ray Haryhausen’s work with 1955’s “It Came From Beneath the Sea”.

Follow Kaiju Vs. History for our chronological travels through over 100 years of giant monsters cinema. Each week we take a look at the development, release and legacy of a new film in the Kaiju genre and look at its place in history.
