Every Ray Harryhausen movie is worth watching.

Was Zsa Zsa Gabor on-board? According to “Queen of Outer Space”, she was from Venus.

I thought the creature was fantastically well done.

The first U.S. spaceship to Venus crash-lands
off the coast of Sicily on its return trip.
A dangerous, lizard-like creature comes with it and quickly grows gigantic.

Knowing the Sicilians, it would end up in a large pot of spaghetti sauce. Or as calamari.

I remember that one. The army fired cannon at him while he was on the Colusium. Great fight between the creature and an elephant.

Great monster movie… Always felt bad for the critter, though…

Watched it, surprisingly well done. No kiss at the end with the nurse?

I enjoyed 5 Million Miles to Earth (Quatermass and the Pit) more

https://www.imdb.com/title/tt0062168/

It was one of the spookiest movies I saw in my childhood and was excited to view it again nearly 30 years later.

The DVD’s on my list to add to the collection.
