I went crazy over this movie when I was a boy, 7 years old in 1961. My dad took me down to the MEMROSE THEATRE in Norfolk, Va. where it was playing for months. The first time was a Friday night and the line to get tickets was all the way down Colley Ave. on the sidewalk and it turned the corner and went all the way down Raleigh Ave. As a boy, I had never seen anything like that. It was so exciting I could hardly stand it! Those were the days when movie going was something you could hardly wait for! I still watch this several times a year and I have the original movie poster from MGM 1961. It's wonderful! "LIKE NOTHING YOU'VE EVER SEEN BEFORE"! on the top of the poster!
As a kid growing up in 70s/80s Britain, this film was often shown on TV during school holidays. Whenever I spotted it in the TV listings I made sure to tune in - loved this along with 50s B-movie sci-fi.
A true happy ending! Well, except for all those poor people who died....and for all those ancient buildings destroyed in my beloved London! But, in the end Mom saved her child! Fine movie, i enjoyed it! Thank you for uploading it!
as a soldier in Germany 1960 I met a National Service soldier who told me he was an actor in the movies, and his last job before being calld up was as a soldier in Gorgo he remembers running across a bridge. I will dee if i can recognise him LOL
Wow what a wholesome moment between two grandpa 👴.!! I wish I can relate like this with my mate later in life. Congrats mates.! The amount of joy you guys must felt seeing moving pictures haha… we don’t know what will marvel us tomorrow again, we have come a long way.
Easier to digest the UK version? Gorgo looks as if he suffers from idiopathic facial or paralysis - Bell’s palsy. My mother’s friend had it but recovered with proper care, regimen & treatment.

Hello from PIKEVILLE KENTUCKY 💫 im 64 used to watch Chiller THEATER ON SATURDAY NIGHTS 11PM THIS SO REMINDS ME OF THAT LOVE YOUR UPLOADS NO MATTER IF ITS NOT SO SCARY NOW
My mother had a profound appreciation for classic monster movies, particularly the original King Kong and this film which she cherished deeply. It's been approximately 55 years, yet the memories remain vivid in my mind. One scene that always stirs deep emotions in me is when Gorgo momma, a towering creature, places her foot upon the enclosure's edge, enabling her offspring to escape to freedom. This moment, so powerfully depicted, never fails to evoke a sense of poignant nostalgia in me. Additionally, I must acknowledge the exceptional soundtrack of the film, a sentiment echoed by many others. Its a compelling composition that greatly enhances the entire movie's impact, and I wholeheartedly concur with those who praise its heartwarming quality.
Without a.doubt this is the most beautiful theme to any science-fiction or monster movie I have ever heard. The way the composer blends, the monster, with the little boy is incredibly ingenious. The music representing the little boy is heartwarming. Kudos Mr Lavagnino.
Never ever seen these wonderful movies!!! So well made and written!!! Thank you You Tube!!! It’s worth paying a small fee every month also for no commercials!!!
I was only five years old when I saw this movie and I was really blown away, scary 😱 night, for the time they were the best special effects Thank you for bringing back those fond memories For uploading it and recommending it.
I remember this movie vividly. I was 8 year old when it came to the local theatre. There was a full page color ad in the newspaper for the movie. All the kids in the neighborhood begged our parents to let us go see it. They gave us each a quarter and about 8 of us walked to the theater to see it. I remember those red eyes scared me to death. I had nightmares for a week.
@@patrickoneill8707 Well apart from the fact that's a Scottish highland accent :D And a quick check on IMDB shows he was born in Aberdeen so that fits perfectly. Seen him in something before....ahhh yeah he's the wee boy in the Grayfriars Bobby film
Watched this last year for the first time since the 70's, and it was a pleasant surprise. It's not dated very much and it's a decent film for what it is. It works because it sticks to the original Godzilla formula of man v nature and the latter being too strong for the formula. It doesn't have too many supporting characters like some kaijus. There's no comic relief. The model work is good and it's quite harrowing at points. It's really good for what it is. Also much better than the likes of Repticilus or Yongary.
A great classic monster movie. I loved the theme---that the monster was just a mother regaining the infant that the humans had stolen. And the warning at the end----that man should be wary of boasting that he is lord of creation----seemed very appropriate. Of course, you have to suspend your disbelief to enjoy the story. Even as a kid I realized that the first thing the authorities would have done would have been to grab the baby monster and put it in the path of the rampaging mother. WAY better than letting her stomp half of London flat trying to find her baby. But that was part of the message about watching our hubris. Still, a great old fashioned monster movie.
When it comes to suspension of disbelief, fact is stranger than fiction. Look at the wars, the chaos and the abject stupidity of politicians and those who make our decisions, then tell me about suspension of disbelief 😎 If Gorgo's mum popped up in London, do you really think 'the authorities' would do the right thing?

Fact is always stranger than fiction. Real suspension of disbelief comes when you start believing politicians, when you accept war, chaos, greed and abject stupidity as normal. If Gorgo's mum popped up in London, no doubt the idiots in charge would cause more destruction than a runaway dinosaur 😎
Good movie and fun to watch. At least the science Isn't too wonky until the mom showed up. If you can accept the idea that a crocodilian from the Jurassic could withstand a 5-inch armor-piercing shell, well if she couldn't it wouldn't be much of a movie. I saw this movie in the theatres in the 60s and I enjoyed it just as much today as I did then.
Thank you for this! I was seven when this was released. I loved it, loved my Gorgo comic and every monster comic and film. My tender heart bled for them all. I'll be a septogenarian lady this winter and I still love a cryptid story and all science fiction. I have written half my short stories in the genre.
Live a few hours ago. It was a blast chatting with everyone. Loved it had to go get beer. Please do live again soon. Timing was perfect. Thanks Cult Cinema ❤❤❤
All things considered, this is a pretty good movie. Lots of aircraft and ship shots if you are into that sort of stuff, and the quality for a 63 year old film is excellent. The creature is a bit more cheesy than Godzilla (1954) but it's still well worth watching. The British are much more subtle with the destruction of London, it's not in flames like Tokyo after Godzilla got finished.
yeah, and Godzilla romped across half of Tokyo and a lot of other places. Maybe subtle isn't the word but the movie was a lot less devastating than any Godzilla movie.
I never knew this was in color. I remember seeing it on TV as a kid but, we only had a black and white TV. Even as kid, I thought he was the poor-man’s Godzilla. 😂🤣😂🤣😂😅
@chrisjenkins9978 Glad you enjoyed it colorized! Just so you know, we have a lot of films in both B&W and color. You can go to the description box of any film and find the link to the other version, B&W or color. Cheers!
Это была бабушка Годзиллы! А какие хорошенькие у неё ушки! Так натурально трепыхаются! А какие хорошенькие домики из картонных кубиков! Молодцы декораторы! А если серьёзно... людская алчность и глупость не знают границ. Единственный голос разума был у ребёнка, но ведь взрослые дяди считают себя самыми умными. Когда уже человечество наконец,поймёт, что не только мы живём на Земле,есть и другие обитатели, они имеют такое же право жить. И нечего лезть туда, куда нас не просят и нарушать их покой и территорию. Под водой существуют различные существа,а может и целые цивилизации, они нас не трогают,и мы не должны их трогать.
Awesome monster creature movie. Gorgo, North Atlanics cousin of Pacifics Godcilla 😉 The special effects from 63 years ago was put to good use, making this an entertaining movie even today. I can imagine how it was received in color cinemas back then, must have been very impressive and exiting to the audience. Thank you for putting this up here. 👍
Una grata sorpresa toparme con esta película clásica del género de la ciencia ficción en tan buenas condiciones. Saludos y bendiciones a todos los cinéfilos de corazón desde Venezuela.
I'm not much on films like this, but however, this was a treat. Even though it was fiction...Something can be takin away from this. Never ever underestimate the power of a mother who loves its child. All these greedy people had to do was to let the baby go. In the end, momma and baby won while man and his stupide ways got MASHED!
oh wow! i remember seeing this (a repeat on tv) way back in about 1980-something .. it made such a huge impression on me for some strange reason... how cool sto stumble upon it again! kinda made me smile seeing it again..
Pensar que hace 60 años esta película causaba terror , en los cines del mundo. En los años '60 aun se esperaba que los efectos radioactivos de las bombas atómicas , lanzadas en Japón , generara , o " liberara " , monstruos de este tipo. En 2024 y por el calentamiento global , muchos esperan ver salir de las profundidades de la Antártica a ... la Tribu perdida de Israel. La Carcaña , Godzila , King Kong , siguen la misma idea. Gracias por subirla , me recordó mi adolescencia.
King Kong in the 1930s was the last credible monster film. You could believe that a giant ape would cause that much damage before World War 2 and the age of Jets and Nuclear Weapons. A large lumbering animal like this Gorgo would be no trouble to capture and inspect in modern times. 😊
This brings me back. I remember as a little boy going to the Dorkins Circus and seeing Gorgo. I never could figure out how they got it to ride a unicycle, those things are hard! Good Day!
Pretty good for a Saturday afternoon kids matinée movie back in 1961. I would have loved it if I were a kid (while getting sick to death stuffing myself with milk duds, over salted popcorn and good and plenty candy) The two gentlemen who caused it all certainly have some explaining to do after half of London got blitzed, all because they wanted to make a quick buck!
If they wouldn't let the baby go in the first place, it never would have happened But it's just a movie right.. Nothing is stronger than a love for a child.. You will go through hell to keep your trial safe.. She tore the city apart to retrieve her child..
This is the first Steven Seagal film I've seen in the last 15 years where he doesn't look like he just polished of two dozen donuts and three Subway footlongs.
Freddie Young expert cinematographer for Gorgo 1961 and Lawrence Of Arabia 1962. Now i remember where else ive seen William Sylvester, 2001 A Space 0dyssey 1968.
For the Year this came out 1961 incredibly well done I think! I mean it's a guy in a suit but it's pretty well done if you compare it to Godzilla way better production value great job thank you!
I find I watch these old 50s & 60s sci-fi movies when I want to be humored or have an incredulous laugh. So who ripped who off? Did King Kong rip this movie off or visa versa?
Scenes we'd like to see -- Gorgo vs. Godzilla. Gorgo vs. Hedra. I dunno. I'm glad this is a one-off. Gorgo had no future then as it would now. There's a new Godzilla movie coming out around Christmas as I recall. "Godzilla Minus One" I think. The only changes to Godzilla from the 50's and 60's are -- nothin'. Same plot for how many years? The best were those silly made just for kids 60's and early 70's ones; my favorite being "Godzilla vs. the Smog Monster" complete with with a wild and crazy psychedelic club scene. The intro was so totally well done, colorful, everything moving and swirling around like one would expect out of some early 70's psychedelic nightclub where the action was hot. Lol! I don' know nothin' but that particular movie played on my town's local TV on Saturday mornings culminated with "Wrestling from Florida with Gordon Solie" could not be beat. My jaw dropped at the premier of the Ultimate Warrior! Where did that beast come from? Bigger 'n Gorgo, that's fer sure, man. OK. I digress. Happy to see this film posted here and in great resolution. It is important to keep these (cheesy) films alive as they are time capsules into a history carved up beyond all recognition.
Well, I don't necessarily disagree, but it's worth pointing out that since this comment was Made "Godzilla Minus One" came out and not only became a HUGE success but is also basically celebrated as a masterpiece. One's mileage may vary of course. But in any case the commercial future of Godzilla and japanese Kaiju movies (including or especially the more "serious" ones) certainly seems guaranteed for a long time to come. Personally I'm also quite partial to the silly 60s extravaganzas and think it is quite regrettable that they would have no chance in our current culture that continues to be obsessed with the "dark" and "edgy".
@@jonimoroni7475in fact it's a feminist movie, and could also be called "Mama Gorgo Against The Patriarchy" or "She-Gorgo Defeats The Toxic White Male Privilege".
I was struck by the fact that there was no love interest. No fainting. For a moment I thought the female reporter might be it but one question (about money!) and she was done.

There is also a giant ape one too by the British.

I love the old monster/horror movies from the 50's and early 60's.
Love this movie when I was a kid!!
I could never remember the name of this movie.
I wish we could go back to the time before CGI and when they made huge efforts to make these movies.
明らかに1954ゴジラの影響を受けた作品、シナリオ的には後年ガッパに影響を与えたのかな?怪獣の造形はゴジラと比べると粗づくりだが兵器などはミニチュアでなく現実のものを多く使いリアルでした、子供のころ名画座で見ていたので懐かしいです。
Muito bom hein, sempre quis assistir esse filme mas só agora foi possível, merecia um remake, valeu pela postagem.

Bonjour de la France ! I like old movies .🎇❤
This is the first Steven Seagal film I've seen in the last 15 years where he doesn't look like he just polished of two dozen donuts and three Subway footlongs.
Un film diviso in capitoli... È la prima volta che vedo una cosa del genere. Peccato per le parti non doppiate.
Eu sou muito fã desse estilo de filme!!!!👍👍🍺🍺
😮... J'aime la morale de cette histoire..🤦...😁
Il fallait, et il faut laisser la mère, et son petit...🐉🦖... tranquille..😐👍❣️
Hello ,as I have aged I spent god knows how many years telling people of this movie, even though I lived in the area. Now I have proof
Super! Thanks for movie!
Thanks CCC!
Thanks 😊...Парк Июркского периода...Годила.... Godzilla and King Kong.👽👌.
ゴジラより7年も後発の怪獣映画。
ゴジラがいかに凄い映画だったか再確認しました。
緊迫感がなく、全てがのんびりしている。
怪獣出現がまるで隣の夫婦ゲンカのレベルなのね。
Merci du partage plusoui un pouce!!!*plus' svp oui merci bonne journée ❤
Well Done. Great watch. Enjoy. Thank you.
That Irish boy was a long way from home, he had a Scottish accent.
Capolavoro ricco di significati soprattutto sulla follia e avidità umana
Aw, Gorgo has cute little flippy ears, just like in the Mexican comic book I read in 1965!
Freddie Young expert cinematographer for Gorgo 1961 and Lawrence Of Arabia 1962.
Now i remember where else ive seen William Sylvester, 2001 A Space 0dyssey 1968.
William Sylvester, en route from this B film to playing "Dr Heywood Floyd" in "2001: A Space Odyssey"...
When did this happen? I didn't hear anything about this on CNN.Those poor Brits.
Good one ccc thanks again
For the Year this came out 1961 incredibly well done I think! I mean it's a guy in a suit but it's pretty well done if you compare it to Godzilla way better production value great job thank you!
I had Gorgo comics books I bought when I was a kid. I wish I had all those comics now.
I find I watch these old 50s & 60s sci-fi movies when I want to be humored or have an incredulous laugh. So who ripped who off? Did King Kong rip this movie off or visa versa?
うわあ感激。題名だけは知っていた未見の映画です。
52分18秒には日の丸を付けたF-86旭光が写ります。東宝も協力した作品だったのですね。調べてみたら、空の大怪獣ラドンの56分57秒のシーンと同じでした。
Scenes we'd like to see -- Gorgo vs. Godzilla. Gorgo vs. Hedra. I dunno. I'm glad this is a one-off. Gorgo had no future then as it would now. There's a new Godzilla movie coming out around Christmas as I recall. "Godzilla Minus One" I think. The only changes to Godzilla from the 50's and 60's are -- nothin'. Same plot for how many years? The best were those silly made just for kids 60's and early 70's ones; my favorite being "Godzilla vs. the Smog Monster" complete with with a wild and crazy psychedelic club scene. The intro was so totally well done, colorful, everything moving and swirling around like one would expect out of some early 70's psychedelic nightclub where the action was hot. Lol! I don' know nothin' but that particular movie played on my town's local TV on Saturday mornings culminated with "Wrestling from Florida with Gordon Solie" could not be beat. My jaw dropped at the premier of the Ultimate Warrior! Where did that beast come from? Bigger 'n Gorgo, that's fer sure, man. OK. I digress. Happy to see this film posted here and in great resolution. It is important to keep these (cheesy) films alive as they are time capsules into a history carved up beyond all recognition.
Well, I don't necessarily disagree, but it's worth pointing out that since this comment was Made "Godzilla Minus One" came out and not only became a HUGE success but is also basically celebrated as a masterpiece.
One's mileage may vary of course.
But in any case the commercial future of Godzilla and japanese Kaiju movies (including or especially the more "serious" ones) certainly seems guaranteed for a long time to come.
Personally I'm also quite partial to the silly 60s extravaganzas and think it is quite regrettable that they would have no chance in our current culture that continues to be obsessed with the "dark" and "edgy".
Not one actress in the entire cast except for Mama Gorgo, Marmo...
Oh dear, that means this movie is misogynistic…quick, we must cancel this movie immediately before someone gets their feelings hurt.
Great! (no stupid kiss scenes)
@@jonimoroni7475in fact it's a feminist movie, and could also be called "Mama Gorgo Against The Patriarchy" or "She-Gorgo Defeats The Toxic White Male Privilege".
I was struck by the fact that there was no love interest. No fainting. For a moment I thought the female reporter might be it but one question (about money!) and she was done.
@@cerad7304 Hahaha 😆 👍🏻
This was excellent ! Thank you
Jurassic world two was heavily inspired by this movie one will say. Just loved the movie, esp the ending. Good conquers evil!
Not the monsters fault, treating it like its property and not a living being. Cant wait for Mum to show up!
I remember watching Gorgo as little kid of giant monster loved the movie 🎦
