The Beast from 20,000 Fathoms

"Opening Narrator: This is Operation Experiment, a secret base far north of the Arctic Circle. Experiment was the codename for a top priority scientific expedition. These men arrived here on X-day minus 60. It has taken them the full two months to get ready. Today is X-day."

"Cpl. Stone: If you can load it, I can fire it."

"Prof. Thurgood Elson: I feel like I'm leaving a world of untold tomorrows for a world of countless yesterdays."

"It's alive!"

"You'll see it tear a city apart!"

"FANTASTIC SEA-GIANT CRUSHES CITY!"

"Prehistoric sea-giant rages against city!"

"They couldn't believe their eyes! They couldn't escape the terror! And neither will you!"

"Cast of thousands! Over a year in the making!"

"The seas master beast of the ages- raging up from the bottom of time"

"A Thrill-Story Beyond All Imagining !"

"For some reason the creation was called a rhedosaurus, and although I can't remember where this name came from, I suspect Hal Chester or one of the writers coined it. Over the years, people have suggested that the first two letters relate to the initials of a certain animator. I have no comment."

"The task of instilling pathos into a creature that was, after all, an innocent victim of circumstances was something I had set myself from the outset, although I was restrained by the script... The Beast is a poor lost soul brought back to life by man and then destroyed by man. If it sounds familiar, it is. King Kong was a huge influence, as he would be in all the other creatures I would be father to."
