It Came from Beneath the Sea (1955)
In this 1950s sci-fi classic, a giant octopus terrorizes the West Coast after being driven out of its habitat by hydrogen bomb testing. Directed by Robert Gordon, this film features pioneering stop-motion effects by Ray Harryhausen. The story follows a Navy commander, played by Kenneth Tobey, as he works with a team to stop the monster from destroying San Francisco.
