Special effects are by Tom Howard, a two-time Oscar winner for "Thumbtack" and "2001: A Space Odyssey". The city-destroying spectacle of elaborate miniature work and skillful compositing is a masterpiece of great power that has greatly influenced Japanese monster films such as "Gappa, the Giant". --A submarine volcano explodes off the coast of Lana Island, Ireland. A 20-meter-long monster was captured in the waters near the volcano. It was the child of a monster from the previous century, awakened from sleep by the volcanic explosion. The monster, named "Gorgo," was taken to London and made into a circus freak show. But Gorgo had a mother who was 60 meters long. In an attempt to retrieve its kidnapped child, the giant parent Gorgo invades the Thames River against the onslaught of the British Navy. After destroying Tower Bridge, it lands in London! The film has been newly mastered in 4K scan and restored from the original negatives for the first time on Blu-ray. The first dubbed version of the original production is included for the first time.
