Gorgo - Widescreen Destruction Edition
A volcanic eruption in the North Atlantic brings to the surface a 65-foot prehistoric monster. Two treasure divers capture the creature and take him to London where he is put on display in a circus. A scientist is thoughtful enough to point out that the sailors' bonanza is only an infant, and that a full-grown specimen would be over 200 feet in height. Sure enough, Gorgo's mama comes thundering ashore, reclaims her offspring and heads back to sea ? but not before she trashes a generous portion of London. The special effects in GORGO, provided by Tom Howard ? two-time Academy Award winner, are truly admirable. The monster is quite ferocious ? except when he wiggles his ears. Released by MGM in 1961.

- worse then "Plan 9 from Outer Space"
As far as I'm concerned this was the worst movie of all time. The movie that usualy lays claim to the title of worst movie of all time ("Plan 9 from Outer Space") was at least fun to laugh at. This is a boring groaner from the get go....
