00:01:00This is Operation Experiment, a secret base far north of the Arctic Circle.
00:01:24Experiment was the code name for this top priority scientific expedition.
00:01:29These men arrived here on X day, minus 60.
00:01:32It has taken them the full two months to get ready.
00:01:36Today is X day.
00:01:38It is now H hour, minus 59 minutes.
00:01:41There's less than an hour left.
00:01:43The plane must arrive at its rendezvous 200 miles away in exactly 58 minutes.
00:01:53There can be no margin for error.
00:01:55There can be no second chance.
00:01:58This is the rendezvous, the forward observation post where scientists and their aides double check their equipment and wait for the plane's approach.
00:02:06It is now H hour, minus 81 seconds.
00:02:10At H hour, minus 75 seconds, the radar antenna flashes the word.
00:02:15There it is.
00:02:16Azimuth, 63 degrees.
00:02:18Airplane sighted.
00:02:2013 hours, 11 minutes.
00:02:23Azimuth, 63 degrees.
00:02:24Speed, approximately 350 miles per hour.
00:02:29Professor Tom Nesbitt and Colonel John Evans, military liaison, tensely wait.
00:02:34The timing is perfect thus far.
00:02:36It is now H hour, minus 56 seconds.
00:02:41Every man here knows his job.
00:02:43He does it quickly, efficiently, silently.
00:02:46The men are ready.
00:02:47The equipment is ready.
00:02:49It is now H hour, minus 52 seconds.
00:02:52Operation Experiment to Y-347.
00:02:56Operation Experiment to Y-347.
00:03:00Over.
00:03:01Y-347 to Operation Experiment.
00:03:04Now leveling off.
00:03:06Ground speed, 360.
00:03:08Approaching IP.
00:03:10IP means initial point.
00:03:12The next 26 seconds will determine whether these men have succeeded or failed.
00:03:17Now we count the seconds.
00:03:2310, 9, 8, 7, 6, 5, 4, 3, 2, 1.
00:03:3510, 9, 9, 9, 9, 9, 9, 9, 9, 9, 9, 9, 9, 9, 9, 9, 9, 9, 9, 9, 9, 9, 9, 9, 9, 9, 9, 9, 9, 9, 9, 9, 9, 9, 9, 9, 9, 9, 9, 9, 9, 9, 9, 9, 9, 9, 9, 9, 9, 9, 9, 9, 9, 9, 9, 9, 9, 9, 9, 9, 9, 9, 9, 9, 9, 9, 9, 9, 9, 9, 9, 9, 9, 9, 9, 9, 9, 9, 9, 9, 9, 9, 9, 9, 9, 9, 9, 9, 9, 9, 9, 9, 9, 9, 9, 9, 9, 9, 9, 9, 9, 9, 9, 9, 9, 9, 9, 9, 9, 9, 9
00:04:05Charlie look
00:04:27Colonel Evans there's something strange on the radar screen
00:04:35Right here sir, a foreign object
00:04:43It's gone. What's gone?
00:04:49I don't know sir. It's silhouetted like 500 tons at least. Where is it then?
00:04:55I don't know sir.
00:05:05Are you sure we saw? We saw something. Maybe the shock tossed something in front of the antenna.
00:05:11Yeah, that must have been it.
00:05:25Eight weeks of preparation. That's all over in a second.
00:05:29Jack, when energy of that magnitude is released, it's never over.
00:05:33What the cumulative effects of all these atomic explosions and tests will be, only time can tell.
00:05:39It means scientists can't tell, huh?
00:05:43The world's been here for millions of years.
00:05:45Man's been walking upright for a comparatively short time.
00:05:49Mentally, we're still crawling.
00:05:51This test will add to our knowledge, wouldn't you say so, Richie?
00:05:55That's right. You know, every time one of these things goes off, I feel as if we were helping to write the first chapter of a new genesis.
00:06:01Let's hope we don't find ourselves writing the last chapter of the old one.
00:06:05You sound like a man that's scared, Tom.
00:06:07What makes you think I'm not?
00:06:09Here are the figures, Tom.
00:06:13We'll be ready to go up to the forward observation post in about an hour.
00:06:17Good. Loomis?
00:06:19Yes, sir.
00:06:20Get the equipment ready.
00:06:21Yes, sir.
00:06:22And you gentlemen, the moment your Geiger counters indicate heavy radiation, you have to turn back.
00:06:26Turn back?
00:06:27Colonel, we'll run back. There isn't a hero in the crowd.
00:06:30There isn't a hero in the crowd.
00:06:44Post 16.
00:07:00Pastor!
00:07:17Shall we try to go around, sir?
00:07:18No. Wait here for us. We'll go up on foot.
00:08:00What's your reading?
00:08:2119.7.
00:08:23We'd better get out.
00:08:25I'll take 417.
00:08:27You take 18 and I'll meet you back here.
00:08:29Make it fast.
00:08:39Sergeant Willistead.
00:08:42What?
00:08:43But they've gone on foot.
00:08:46Okay.
00:08:48What's the matter?
00:08:50There's a blizzard coming up.
00:08:51There's a blizzard coming up.

00:12:16Oh.
00:12:18Oh.
00:12:20I can't move.
00:12:22Nothing's wrong with my light.
00:12:24I'm coming down.
00:12:38Have they reported back yet?
00:12:40No, not yet.
00:12:42We're waiting.
00:12:44Oh.
00:12:50Oh.
00:12:54Mm.
00:12:56Oh.

00:13:06Get out monster
00:13:09Rehistoric monster quiet quiet
00:13:23I'll get you out George
00:13:36I'll get you out George
00:14:06I'll get you out George
00:14:36Hey
00:14:57Stop hey
00:15:06Put him right over here.
00:15:17Give me my bag first.
00:15:18Yes.
00:15:29Get some blankets off those other beds.
00:15:34How is he?
00:15:36Where's Professor Ritchie?
00:15:41Still missing, sir.
00:15:42What happened?
00:15:43We don't know, sir.
00:15:44We saw the flares and double-timed it over to post 18.
00:15:46The whole shore was breaking loose.
00:15:48We grabbed Professor Nesbitt just in time.
00:15:49We never found Ritchie.
00:15:50Colonel, we've got to get Nesbitt to a hospital in the States.
00:15:53He's in a bad way.
00:15:54Right.
00:15:57Get word to the main base if you want a plane right away.
00:15:59Ritchie, I'll get you out.
00:16:03I'll get you out.
00:16:06The monster.
00:16:09It's coming.
00:16:11Watch out.
00:16:12The monster.
00:16:14The monster.
00:16:15The monster.
00:16:16The monster.
00:16:17The monster.
00:16:18The monster.
00:16:19Push out the часть.
00:16:50Hello, Professor Nesmith. How do you feel today?
00:17:12Fine. Where's Colonel Evans? Did you reach Colonel Evans?
00:17:16He'll be here any minute now. I'd like you to meet Dr. Ingersoll.
00:17:20He wants to ask you a few questions, if you don't think it'd be too hard on you.
00:17:24Questions? I'm a psychiatrist, Professor Nesmith.
00:17:27I thought that together we might possibly get to the bottom of this.
00:17:30You'll think I'm crazy, too. I know my story sounds fantastic, but...
00:17:34Professor Nesmith, throughout history, people have claimed that they've seen monsters.
00:17:38Oh, there was the famous Loch Lomond monster, you'll probably recall.
00:17:41Then the green serpents off the shores of Ireland.
00:17:45But as far as I can remember, not one of them was ever caught or even photographed.
00:17:49Doctor, I'm not inclined to let my imagination run away with me. I'm a scientist.
00:17:52All right. Then as a scientist, it shouldn't be inconceivable to you that the mind can withstand just so much pressure.
00:18:00The shock of seeing your friend dead, your own terrifying predicament, was too much to bear.
00:18:05So that you momentarily lost contact with reality.
00:18:09It's a phenomenon which was not uncommon during the war.
00:18:12But George Ritchie wasn't dead when I got to him. He tried to warn me.
00:18:16Two people don't share the same hallucination.
00:18:18Hello, Tom. How are you? Thought out?
00:18:25Jack, I'm glad you're here. I'm having a hard time trying to convince these people that I'm not an idiot.
00:18:29I was in Washington making my report. I was trying to...
00:18:32What they say about the animal? I want to be in on any expedition going after him.
00:18:36Tom, I didn't tell him about the animal.
00:18:39Why not? Should have been in the report.
00:18:41I went back to post 18. I tried to reconstruct what happened out there.
00:18:45I couldn't find a thing. No tracks, nothing.
00:18:52Nothing?
00:18:53I'm sorry. I wish I could say I saw something.
00:18:57A blizzard.
00:18:59There was a blizzard, remember?
00:19:01The snow must have blown over and covered everything.
00:19:04Jack, check me out over here.
00:19:06But you're in no condition to leave. It's imperative that you have rest.
00:19:09How can I rest?
00:19:11Professor Nesbitt, I've encountered this sort of thing before.
00:19:13You've undergone a tremendous shock. You've got to stay in bed.
00:19:17I see.
00:19:18And that makes it official.
00:19:20I'm afraid it does.
00:19:22So long, Tom.
00:19:23You do what the doctor says.
00:19:25We'll get together as soon as you're on your feet again.
00:19:26That won't be too long.
00:19:32What about that sound I heard?
00:19:34Your condition, it could have been anything. Wind, anything.
00:19:51No wind ever made a sound like that.
00:20:04I'm losing my hair.
00:20:07But the long story is me, is that I feel that I will be able to cover your stomach while30...
00:20:08I could tell you how it makes it cool.
00:20:11What?
00:20:16I feel like that.
00:20:17I have a little time for you.
00:20:19I'm talking to my mom.
00:20:19I can talk to dad's have a message.
00:20:26Keep that up.
00:20:27I'll try my first two hours break.
00:20:28Kevin, Kevin, are you a damned man?
00:20:58Good morning.
00:21:25Good morning.
00:21:27What's going on in our turbulent world today?
00:21:33Oh, deaf and politics.
00:21:35The comic page is the only thing that makes sense anymore.
00:21:38I take it then that for peace of mind, you advise a dose of it after each meal.
00:21:42You quote me exactly.
00:21:44I'm going to take your advice exactly.
00:21:46Ah, here it is.
00:21:49Say, look at this.
00:21:59That item is right where it belongs, on the comic page.
00:22:13That item is right where it belongs, on the comic page.
00:22:23And that's why I came here, Dr. Elson.
00:22:35I felt if you heard my story, you'd do something.
00:22:51And what is it you think I can do?
00:22:54Fit out an expedition and institute a search.
00:22:57My dear boy, the fitting out of an expedition requires a great deal of attention to detail, such as time, personnel, money.
00:23:04Well, how can you talk about details in the face of such a discovery?
00:23:08I'm not in the field of paleontology and I have a tremendous desire to know more about this animal.
00:23:13I felt you'd have such a compelling curiosity that nothing would stand in your way.
00:23:19Professor Nesbitt, after waiting for 30 years, I'm about to undertake my first extended holiday.
00:23:26But I can assure you that I would throw aside my plans if I thought there was the slightest chance of what you're saying being possible.
00:23:32It isn't.
00:23:33What about that newspaper item?
00:23:35Oh, if all the items of seamen reporting monsters were placed end on end, they'd reach to the moon, my boy.
00:23:42You mean I'm just wasting your time?
00:23:44Do you realize that you're asking me to believe you saw a creature that would be over a hundred million years old?
00:23:52You said that a hundred million years ago, the water of the Mesozoic age turned to ice.
00:23:57Isn't it possible that an animal could have been trapped in that ice, caught in those suddenly freezing temperatures and locked in?
00:24:04Then, when we released the bomb, the heat generated melted the ice in which this beast was imprisoned and freed it.
00:24:11Bringing it back to life after a hundred million years.
00:24:15Couldn't it have been in a state of hibernation?
00:24:17After all, bears lived through a winter under somewhat similar conditions.
00:24:20That's quite true.
00:24:22A bear does live off itself for one winter from food accumulated within itself.
00:24:28But it's hard to believe that an animal could live for a hundred million years off its own tissue.
00:24:32Well, to put it mildly, it'd require quite an appetite, don't you think?
00:24:38I don't know if this will be of any help, but you remember, Doctor, a few years ago an expedition on earth to herd of mastodons in the Siberian tundra.
00:24:47Dead thousands of years, yet their fur was still intact, the meat still edible.
00:24:52Yes, that's quite right, my dear Lee, but they weren't alive.
00:24:58And that's the important difference, they weren't alive.
00:25:01You know, I'm sorry, Professor, but in all honesty, I can't support your story.
00:25:07Well, I guess I go back to the hospital.
00:25:15Maybe I should ask for a transfer with a psychopathic ward.
00:25:18Oh, nonsense. It's not as bad as all that, my boy.
00:25:22Thanks for listening, Doctor.
00:25:28When he first came to this country, I attended his lectures on the curative properties of the radioactive isotope.
00:25:34He's a brilliant man. Isn't his story in any way feasible?
00:25:39No, and I'm sorry. I'd rather like to help him.
00:25:47Quite frankly, I thought that little jaunt of yours last week would knock you for a loop.
00:25:51But for the life of me, I can't find anything wrong with you.
00:25:53I feel fine. If anything, I can leave.
00:25:56Many times all right with us.
00:25:58And don't go rushing off to the North Pole again.
00:26:00Keep fit and warm.
00:26:02Take those vitamins that I gave you.
00:26:04This is your hour of mirth and melody.
00:26:06They say music have charms to soothe the savage beast.
00:26:09And they ought to try it on these sea monsters we keep hearing about.
00:26:12From Marquette, Canada today comes word of a second ship destroyed by an enormous beast, according to her captain, George LeMay.
00:26:17He really ought to stop smoking that stuff and try Virginia Gold's because...
00:26:29Well, it shouldn't take me too long to catch up.
00:26:31Oh, it's good to have you back, Professor.
00:26:38Anything else, Miss Ryan?
00:26:39Oh, yes.
00:26:40There's Miss Lee Hunter waiting to see you.
00:26:42Miss Lee Hunter?
00:26:43Mm-hmm.
00:26:44She's very pretty.
00:26:45Send her in.
00:26:46Professor Nesbitt, how are you?
00:26:48Fine, fine.
00:26:49We met at the university.
00:26:50I'm Dr. Elvin's assistant.
00:26:51Oh, yes, of course.
00:26:52The verdict?
00:26:53A prehistoric animal would be presumptuous to be alive today and upset your neatly catalogued theories.
00:26:55I see you don't remember. I was a sympathetic backstander.
00:26:56Oh, really? How come?
00:26:58I have a deep abiding faith in the work of scientists.
00:26:59Otherwise I wouldn't be one myself.
00:27:00Well, it's my friend.
00:27:01Well, thank you.
00:27:24Sorry I can't offer you anything, but everything we have around here is radioactive.
00:27:28No, thank you anyway.
00:27:30When I was in the lab yesterday, I heard a radio report about a man who claimed that his ship was sunk by a sea monster.
00:27:36But I thought if all the stories about sea monsters were laid end to end, it reached the moon.
00:27:41But two reports coming so close together.
00:27:44What makes you think two reports are going to convince anybody any more than one did?
00:27:48Well, it convinced me.
00:27:50At least it got me to thinking it would be worthwhile investigating.
00:27:54I've gathered together all the sketches of the known prehistoric animals.
00:27:57Now, if you could identify them.
00:27:59No.
00:28:00Being considered crazy has been quite an experience.
00:28:03However, I wouldn't care to go through it again.
00:28:05Is this the man with the compelling curiosity?
00:28:10Afraid of ridicule?
00:28:11I'm not afraid of ridicule.
00:28:12No.
00:28:13But I'm afraid that's what it sounds like.
00:28:15You said there's sketches of all the known animals?
00:28:20What if it's an unknown one?
00:28:22That's possible.
00:28:24But we'll never really know unless you look at them.
00:28:27Oh, Professor, think what it would mean if you were right.
00:28:45Five-minute break.
00:28:46It's coffee time.
00:28:48Good.
00:28:49I need it.
00:28:54Cream and sugar?
00:28:56It better take both.
00:28:58I make coffee strong enough to enter the Olympics.
00:29:01One or two.
00:29:02Two, please.
00:29:03I never knew there were so many prehistoric animals.
00:29:06We haven't even reached the Cretaceous period yet.
00:29:09I don't know if I could identify that beast now if it looked through the window.
00:29:14Maybe it's part imagination, after all.
00:29:16Something I used to dream about when I was a kid.
00:29:19Or read in fairy tales.
00:29:21You're tired.
00:29:22Why don't you just relax for a moment?
00:29:24Have a sandwich.
00:29:27Thanks.
00:29:33Funny.
00:29:36What's funny?
00:29:37Well, a girl like you.
00:29:39A paleontologist.
00:29:41What's wrong with paleontology?
00:29:43Classifying old bones.
00:29:46Oh, bones.
00:29:48If we didn't study the past, you wouldn't know anything about the atoms.
00:29:52Dr. Ellison says that the future is the reflection of the past.
00:29:55You're fond of Dr. Ellison, aren't you?
00:29:57How do you become his assistant?
00:29:59I suppose by continually antagonizing him.
00:30:02I was one of his students.
00:30:04And to hear him tell it, all I ever did was challenge him or argue with him.
00:30:08I was afraid he was going to expel me.
00:30:10But instead, he asked me to be his assistant after I graduated.
00:30:13So I graduated, and here I am.
00:30:16And here I am.
00:30:18Between us, we span the ages.
00:30:20You deal with the past, I with the future.
00:30:23And how uncomplicated the past was.
00:30:26And how bright the future can be.
00:30:32Let's get back to the present.
00:30:34Let's get back to the present.
00:31:03This might be it.
00:31:06I'm not sure.
00:31:08Not sure?
00:31:10The head looks similar.
00:31:12But the front legs are too short.
00:31:14Wait a minute.
00:31:18Is this any better?
00:31:19No, that's much more like it.
00:31:27And what about this one?
00:31:30That's the closest.
00:31:34I think that is it.
00:31:36Lee, I think that's the one I saw.
00:31:39If two independent observers saw the same thing.
00:31:42If that captain in Canada could identify the same sketch.
00:31:46And tell his story to Dr. Elson.
00:31:54Captain George LeMay, Marquette, Canada.
00:31:57Operator.
00:32:01I want to make a long distance call, please.
00:32:03Person to person.
00:32:05To Captain George LeMay, Marquette, Canada.
00:32:10One moment, please.
00:32:12Charter's call to circle 44771.
00:32:16It's my monster.
00:32:28Hello.
00:32:30Captain, hold your telephone to New York.
00:32:32New York?
00:32:33Please.
00:32:35They're speaking French.
00:32:37Captain LeMay is ready.
00:32:41Hello.
00:32:42Hello, Captain LeMay.
00:32:44Yes, yes.
00:32:46My name is Tom Nesbitt.
00:32:48I'm a scientist in New York.
00:32:50I have some very important questions to ask you.
00:32:53I'm not speaking English.
00:32:54Speak French, please.
00:32:56Yes, please.
00:32:58My name is Tom Nesbitt.
00:33:00I'm a professor in New York.
00:33:03I want to inform you about the sea serpent that you saw,
00:33:07and that destroyed your boat.
00:33:09I saw the same serpent.
00:33:11Serpent?
00:33:13Serpent?
00:33:15All right.
00:33:17Captain.
00:33:19Hello.
00:33:20Captain LeMay.
00:33:21I am sorry, but the Capitan has hung up.
00:33:24He is very unhappy when anybody mentions his accident,
00:33:26because everyone laughs at him.
00:33:28Operator, please get the Captain back.
00:33:29I can't tell you how important this is.
00:33:31I am sorry, Monsieur.
00:33:33You will not speak to you again, I'm sure.
00:33:35He's a stubborn old man, perhaps a little crazy,
00:33:37especially on the subject of service.
00:33:44They think he is crazy, too.
00:33:46Well, it was a good try anyway.
00:33:48But good tries don't pay off.
00:33:49Do you suppose that if you went up there,
00:33:53you could make him understand how important this is?
00:33:56I could get a plane.
00:33:58Phone me if anything exciting happened.
00:34:01I'll phone you even if nothing happens.
00:34:03You missed him by not more than two hours, I'm sure.
00:34:05I thought you might be able to tell me where he went.
00:34:06His housekeeper wouldn't give me any information.
00:34:07Captain LeMay has been very touchy since his sea serpent incident.
00:34:08People felt that he was a bit balmy.
00:34:09You know, they laughed at him.
00:34:10You know, they laughed at him.
00:34:11Too bad, too.
00:34:12The man has served well and faithfully for years.
00:34:13He's the sea serpent.
00:34:14I think he had to remember him.
00:34:15You know, you know, the matter.
00:34:16You know, the sea serpent incident.
00:34:17You know, I was the one.
00:34:18You know, I was the one.
00:34:19You know, I was the one.
00:34:20I was the one.
00:34:21And I was the one.
00:34:22I was the one.
00:34:23You know, I was the one.
00:34:24The one.
00:34:25The one.
00:34:26I was the one.
00:34:27The housekeeper wouldn't give me any information.
00:34:29Captain LeMay has been very touchy since his sea serpent incident.
00:34:33People felt that he was a bit balmy.
00:34:35You know, they laughed at him.
00:34:37Too bad, too.
00:34:39The man has served well and faithfully for years.
00:34:42I believe a man has right to a few nips now and then, I always say.
00:34:46And you don't believe his story?
00:34:48I said he was balmy, not me.
00:34:50He let it get out that he was headed for the interior of Canada
00:34:53and was not going to stop until he hit a spot that was absolutely uninhabited by white men.
00:34:59A blooming hermit he wants to be.
00:35:01Mark my word, he'll be back in less than a month.
00:35:04I can't wait that long.
00:35:06Were there any other survivors?
00:35:08No.
00:35:10How far is it to St. Pierre?
00:35:12Oh, about a hundred miles.
00:35:13Are you going down to see this other chap who claims that he saw it?
00:35:16Yes.
00:35:17I say, you don't believe in this sea serpent fable, do you?
00:35:20What do you think I am? Balmy?
00:35:23Good evening, Jacob.
00:35:37You look much better today.
00:35:41A man is here.
00:35:43A very great scientist from New York.
00:35:46No, sister.
00:35:47Take him away.
00:35:48I want no one near me.
00:35:50He wants so much trouble to find you.
00:35:53Why?
00:35:56He says it is very important.
00:35:59It is about the beast you saw.
00:36:04Tell him leave me alone.
00:36:06Tell him I saw nothing.
00:36:07Tell him I know nothing.
00:36:09Tell him it's all in my head.
00:36:12It's what everybody says.
00:36:14Except me, Jacob.
00:36:15Jacob, who are you?
00:36:18I saw the beast too.
00:36:20You saw him?
00:36:22You're not playing jokes on me?
00:36:24No, I'm not playing any jokes.
00:36:26People called me crazy too.
00:36:29Stays in my mind always and I'll never forget.
00:36:32Jacob.
00:36:33In New York, there are scientists, friends of mine, who will listen and believe.
00:36:38Jacob.
00:36:39Jacob.
00:36:39Will you come to New York with me?
00:36:41Is he well enough to travel?
00:36:48I'd be left a doctor.
00:36:54You know, Lee, there's something very compensating in having to wait 30 years for a holiday.
00:37:00Because when it finally comes, the joy of anticipation is multiplied by just that many years.
00:37:08I feel rather like a schoolboy on the verge of departing for my first summer camp.
00:37:15Oh, by the way, that reminds me.
00:37:17Our young nuclear physicist appears to be delayed.
00:37:21He'll be here any minute.
00:37:22It shouldn't take him long from the airport.
00:37:25Mrs. Zoe Hannibal alive today.
00:37:27I can lose my job and my reputation listening to such nonsense.
00:37:34However, I'm not going to allow my personal opinion to interfere with a possible romance.
00:37:40Don't try to change the subject.
00:37:41You're just being stubborn.
00:37:43Am I?
00:37:45Just to listen to this.
00:37:47Something that I read this morning.
00:37:48On the 21st of October of the year 1797, one Professor Gordon Lawton was forcibly removed by order of the crown from his chair of science at the University of Edinburgh.
00:38:02Dr. Lawton was firmly convinced that leprechauns were responsible for the uprooting of the ancient campus oak.
00:38:07Even swearing upon oath that he had seen them remove it.
00:38:11So, you see, today it's monsters instead of leprechauns.
00:38:17How certain are you there were no leprechauns?
00:38:19Tom.
00:38:20Hallowly.
00:38:21I don't recall this Dr. Lawton, but what about Galileo?
00:38:24He said the earth was round.
00:38:25They made him recant.
00:38:26However, the earth is round.
00:38:28And there is a monster.
00:38:30And I think I can convince you.
00:38:32Is this your sailor witness?
00:38:34Yes, sir.
00:38:35Jacob Bowman.
00:38:36He was the helmsman on the fishing boat fortune.
00:38:38Dr. Elson, Miss Hunter.
00:38:39So you saw the monster too, hmm?
00:38:44Yes, sir.
00:38:46Go ahead, my dear.
00:38:47This is your experiment.
00:38:49Jacob, I want you to look through those sketches and pick out the one that you saw.
00:38:55You don't think this is going to be a waste of time, hmm?
00:38:58Dr. Elson, several days ago at Miss Hunter's apartment, I picked out the sketch of the beast I saw.
00:39:04It's right in that batch.
00:39:05Yes, but unfortunately in paleontology, the empirical system of logic isn't enough.
00:39:11It isn't a question of empirics.
00:39:14If a particle of the sun broke off and flew into space, I wouldn't consider the man who brought that news to be insane.
00:39:21As a scientist, I would examine every facet of it.
00:39:24Yes, my boy, but if a particle of the sun went to break off, a hundred million people would have seen it.
00:39:29If it broke off, it would make no difference if one saw it or no one at all.
00:39:33It would still be the same with the monster.
00:39:35It still is.
00:39:37Hmm.
00:39:40Perhaps I'm getting old.
00:39:43Now, Jacob, you must be quite sure about this creature you claim to have seen.
00:39:47There must be no doubt in your mind.
00:39:50If it's here, I'll know it.
00:40:10That.
00:40:11That's the one I picked.
00:40:15It's the Radosaurus.
00:40:17Extinct for a hundred million years.
00:40:20A hundred million years?
00:40:22Yes.
00:40:23And the direct ancestor of that little lady there.
00:40:27Only twice the size, according to theory.
00:40:30The only known fossils of his species ever discovered were found in a drag of the Hudson submarine canyons.
00:40:37A hundred and fifty miles from New York.
00:40:39Didn't Professor Edmonds write a paper on that just last year?
00:40:43Yes.
00:40:43Yes.
00:40:46Yes.
00:40:47If we could only be sure.
00:40:50Without a shadow of a doubt.
00:40:51Dr. Elson, what further proof do you need?
00:40:54Things have happened again and again, and they'll continue to happen.
00:40:57I tried to get the authorities to keep the sea lanes and the coastline and the close watch.
00:41:01They wouldn't listen to me.
00:41:02They'll listen to you this time, my boy.
00:41:04Get them on the phone.
00:41:05I'll talk to them.
00:41:08Thanks.
00:41:08Colonel Evans, please.
00:41:17Jack?
00:41:19Tom Nesbitt.
00:41:21I feel great.
00:41:22That hallucination of mine, the one that everybody was having such a good laugh about.
00:41:29Well, I've got proof the monster exists.
00:41:32Now, Tom, let's not start that again.
00:41:36What?
00:41:36Well, I can just see myself going to the chief of staff and requesting permission to seek out a prehistoric monster.
00:41:42Eagles on a straitjacket are not regulation uniform.
00:41:45Look, Jack, I'm here at the university.
00:41:47I'm with Dr. Elson, the foremost paleontologist in the world.
00:41:51Just a moment.
00:41:52He wants to talk to you.
00:41:53Colonel Evans, this is Dr. Elson.
00:41:58Colonel, I'm convinced that Professor Nesbitt is on to something.
00:42:02And, Dr. Elson, there have been all kinds of stories.
00:42:05Stories of sea serpents, stories of the world coming to an end, stories of flying saucers.
00:42:10You know, and what makes you so sure there are no flying saucers?
00:42:13But nevertheless, I am absolutely convinced that by some strange trick of chance, this creature does exist.
00:42:20And I'm prepared to stake my reputation on it.
00:42:22Well, I'm sure you know what you're talking about, Doctor, but I think we'll just look foolish if we stick our neck out.
00:42:28Well, will you promise me if any further reports come in, you'll let us know?
00:42:32I'll tell you what I'll do, Doctor.
00:42:33I've got a friend in the Coast Guard.
00:42:34I'll drop in to see him.
00:42:36If he's heard of anything, I'll get in touch with you.
00:42:38Okay?
00:42:39Thank you, Colonel.
00:42:40We'll appreciate it.
00:42:42He's going to check and let us know.
00:42:45We can't just sit around.
00:42:47I'm afraid there's nothing else we can do.
00:42:51Wait.
00:42:52I heard a new song at the tavern the other day.
00:43:07Something about gin and wild women.
00:43:11Oh, how'd it go?
00:43:12Oh, I don't remember.
00:43:14Set five nickels in the box to hear it again and the thing busted down.
00:43:19Yeah, well, you know me.
00:43:22I couldn't carry a tune in the bushel basket.
00:43:26I like the balance.
00:43:28The old ones would warm you even when the fog is a foot thick.
00:43:30You hear that?
00:43:52I'm afraid.
00:43:53You hear that?
00:43:53Oh, my God.
00:44:23come in that's all jack how are you feel at this moment i don't know well sit down sit down
00:44:48haven't seen you since the last army navy game what a game that water what's the problem
00:44:55aec getting you down no not at all phil good stick around i'll be through here in a minute
00:45:00we'll go over to the club phil here it is straight one of the scientists in the last polar test claims
00:45:06he saw a monster don't look at me like that the dean of the college of natural history believes
00:45:11him then who am i to doubt it say you're not trying to get a section eight discharge are you
00:45:16and you rotting colonel phil these scientists claim that this monster beast whatever it is
00:45:21it's a prehistoric thing if you laugh i'll brain you it's romping somewhere around the north atlantic
00:45:27i guess you'll have to brain me you're not jack anyway that's what they say look phil would you
00:45:33do me a favor would you check around and see if there have been any reports of any
00:45:37oh freak happenings or anything unusual are you on the level standing on my head is on the level i am
00:45:43you certainly sound serious all right i'll check but so help me if this is a practical joke yeah i'll die laughing
00:46:04oh
00:46:09oh
00:46:11oh
00:46:13oh
00:46:13oh
00:46:14oh
00:46:16oh
00:46:18oh
00:46:20oh
00:46:22oh
00:46:23Well, that's it.
00:46:40No storm, no earthquake, nothing.
00:46:43But that lighthouse was destroyed completely.
00:46:47Were there any other unexplained happenings?
00:46:49Yes.
00:46:50Coast Guard Station 37 reported minor shore wreckage along the Massachusetts coast.
00:46:54Several isolated buildings were destroyed.
00:46:57And a farmer was found crushed to death.
00:47:00You know, there's a certain inexorable chronology in these disasters.
00:47:04I don't follow you, Doctor.
00:47:07Tom Purcell, the Redosaurus, near Baffin Bay.
00:47:10While his latest presumed presence is off the coast of Massachusetts.
00:47:15May I have a look at your chart, Captain?
00:47:17Of course.
00:47:19Oh, uh, now, first, north of Baffin Bay.
00:47:32And second, the fishing catch fortune was wrecked here, off the Grand Banks.
00:47:39With another one attacked shortly thereafter.
00:47:43Uh, here.
00:47:44Uh, Nova Scotia.
00:47:47And third, the lighthouse off the coast of Maine.
00:47:52Uh, and fourth, the unexplained wreckage off the coast of Massachusetts.
00:47:56You'll notice that we've been following the Arctic Current all the way down.
00:48:04Now, it's just possible that he might be making for...
00:48:08Here.
00:48:09It was in these submerged canyons that the only known fossils of his species were found.
00:48:15What you say is true, he couldn't mind those canyons.
00:48:17And kill the Redosaurus?
00:48:19Oh, no.
00:48:20But think of what a lost, the sands, then.
00:48:22Oh, no.
00:48:23But to capture it alive, that would be an achievement.
00:48:27And just how do you propose to capture it, if it exists?
00:48:31Uh, I, I don't know.
00:48:32But, uh, if the acetate is down there in the canyons,
00:48:37I shall have to go down and see it before I decide upon a method of capturing.
00:48:40Oh, well, that's much too dangerous.
00:48:42Yes, but then the risk would be worth it, if one thinks of the benefit to science.
00:48:48Captain, is it possible to obtain the use of a diving bell?
00:48:53You mean you really want to go down there?
00:48:54Yes.
00:48:55I can get a diving bell.
00:48:58What do you think, Jack?
00:49:01Everything else I say checks out.
00:49:03If you can get it, let's move.
00:49:05I still don't see how he's going to find it.
00:49:19This canyon is a hundred miles long.
00:49:21What I understand is he plans to drop down at a different spot every hour until he does find it.
00:49:26Hear this.
00:49:27Hear this.
00:49:27We are now ready to make the dive at position number one.
00:49:31I don't like the idea of you going down there with just one man.
00:49:34But that's capacity.
00:49:35Besides, if there's any danger, my crewman, Mr. Wilson, will know what to do.
00:49:38I brought you jam, I mean.
00:49:39No, thank you, my dear.
00:49:41I might be much too excited to get seasick.
00:49:44Are you ready, Dr. Elson?
00:49:46Remember, at the first sign of danger, signal us.
00:49:49Why would you persist in talking about danger, my boy?
00:49:52The Redisaurus and I are old friends.
00:49:54Good luck, doctor.
00:49:55Thank you, my boy.
00:50:00Here you are, sir.
00:50:07Now, don't look so worried, B.
00:50:09We're scientists.
00:50:10This is our job.
00:50:12This is a great moment for me.
00:50:30All the comforts are home.
00:50:45Lower away.
00:50:48Loist away.
00:51:00Is there anything I have to do?
00:51:23Oh, no, sir.
00:51:23You just relax and enjoy the scenery.
00:51:25Oh, all right.
00:51:26This is such a strange feeling.
00:51:49I feel I'm leaving a world of untold tomorrows
00:51:53for a world of countless yesterdays.
00:52:05You know, Lee was right.
00:52:06I should have brought the Dramamen pills.
00:52:09This is all very frustrating.
00:52:22I do hope all our endeavors are not going to be in vain.
00:52:46You're welcome, doctor.
00:52:53We're having coffee now.
00:52:54And some visitors.
00:53:14There appears to be a slight difference of opinion
00:53:16between two of the local inhabitants.
00:53:18There appears to be a Saudis.
00:53:40There appears to be a Grand 선택 in Pokemon,
00:54:15There he is.
00:54:27It's unbelievable.
00:54:31He's tremendous.
00:54:33I can only see part of him.
00:54:36The leg and the shoulder.
00:54:38But he's enormous.
00:54:40He found it.
00:54:41Shall we pull you up?
00:54:42No, no, no.
00:54:43Put Lee on.
00:54:44Put Lee on.
00:54:46He wants to talk to you.
00:54:49Yes, doctor?
00:54:50Lee?
00:54:51There's no mistake about it.
00:54:53It's a pale unethical survival.
00:54:55Exactly as we pictured it.
00:54:57Except that the dorsal is singular.
00:54:58Not bilateral.
00:54:59And the capital suspension appears to be cantileveric.
00:55:11But the most astonishing thing about it is that...
00:55:16Doctor.
00:55:19Dr. Elton.
00:55:21He doesn't answer.
00:55:23Hello, Dr. Elton.
00:55:24Dr. Elton.
00:55:25Hello.
00:55:26Get him up.
00:55:27Raise the bell.
00:55:28I'll be pulling you up.
00:55:33Dr. Elton.
00:55:34Hello.
00:55:35Dr. Elton.
00:55:37Can you hear me?
00:55:39Answer me.
00:55:40Hello.
00:55:43The line is dead.
00:55:44Well, the report has been turned in.
00:56:08The National Guard has been alerted.
00:56:09The Coast Guard, too.
00:56:10Evans has been put in charge.
00:56:12This was being packed for a very different reason.
00:56:17Lee, what can I say?
00:56:19I should have gone down instead of him.
00:56:21I'm to blame.
00:56:22Nobody's to blame.
00:56:24And everybody's to blame.
00:56:26We all did what we thought was right.
00:56:27But that doesn't bring him through the door again.
00:56:32With this funny little walk.
00:56:33And that wonderful smile.
00:56:37His place seems so empty.
00:56:40He used to putter around with the specimens.
00:56:44Call them pet names.
00:56:45His death was a funeral.
00:56:51Lee.
00:56:53He went down in that bell because it was part of his job.
00:56:58He used the same words just before.
00:57:00Oh, Tom.
00:57:01He used to kill him.
00:57:21He used to kill him.
00:57:22He used to kill him.

01:01:03Oh
01:01:05Oh
01:03:19Every section of the city is guarded.
01:03:22No one knows where the monster will strike next.
01:03:25It was last seen on Wall Street, close to where it came ashore.
01:03:28But Lower Manhattan has become no man's land where the beast at present lies hidden.
01:03:33The National Guard is barricading the entire area in an effort to confine the death and destruction of what is already the worst disaster in New York's history.
01:03:42A screen here.
01:03:49105 temperature.
01:03:54Here's the blood specimen.
01:04:02Get into the laboratory quickly.
01:04:04I'm afraid, Sam.
01:04:05I am afraid of what that creature has brought to us.
01:04:08Deadly afraid.
01:04:09I am afraid.
01:04:22Let's go.
01:04:52Fire and ready, Corporal.
01:04:54Yes, sir.
01:04:55It's skull.
01:04:57It's at least eight inches thick.
01:05:11Another one, Colonel?
01:05:12No.
01:05:13It'll take a three-inch shell to penetrate that skull.
01:05:16The bazooka squad, prepare to fire.
01:05:36High voltage wires.
01:05:37It's going to touch them.
01:05:43Bazooka men, fire!
01:05:46Under the neck, when he raises his head again.
01:05:49Under the neck, when he raises his head again.
01:06:16Get those emergency search lights on.
01:06:28We're working on it.
01:06:34Sergeant.
01:06:35Sergeant.
01:06:38What is it?
01:06:39Blood.
01:06:46именно.
01:06:47Best.
01:06:48Where's he hurled over?
01:06:52And there.
01:06:53What's that's happening?
01:06:55He's he's ready to move his head.
01:06:56Got it.
01:06:58First, the third is walking a little knee.
01:07:02Eyes can walk.
01:07:04We got these whiteakles at his feet.
01:07:05I have a house.
01:07:06irsiniz.
01:07:07After a second, I have to detour our bodies.
01:07:09Watch over this.
01:07:10Please do this.
01:07:11I have to look like I've got.
01:07:13Give me the walkie-talkie.
01:07:25Colonel Evans.
01:07:27Colonel Evans.
01:07:28Sergeant Wintoni.
01:07:29Now look, proceed with extreme caution.
01:07:32Wounded the animal might be twice as dangerous as before.
01:07:34There's a possibility the animal might have headed for the river.
01:07:46We'll have all shore batteries alerted and naval patrol vessels.
01:07:48Get me a command car.
01:08:04Colonel Evans speaking, go ahead.
01:08:06Look, Colonel, something's funny.
01:08:10Most of the detail are, well, they're out.
01:08:14Out on their, on their feet, sir.
01:08:16Have your sergeant contact the medics and report to Captain Mitchell.
01:08:20Your car is ready, sir.
01:08:21Have the medical officer report to me at area command.
01:08:23Yes, sir.
01:08:28He is reported somewhere in the Lower Bay Area.
01:08:31Battery A in position zero.
01:08:32Battery A in position zero.
01:08:37Report radar findings.
01:08:39Report radar finding.
01:08:42Sounding harbor bottom.

01:08:45Activate mines numbers 8 to 24.
01:08:47Activate mines numbers 8 to 24.
01:08:51What's the situation, Major?
01:08:53Sounding the harbor bottom.
01:08:54No indications as yet, sir.
01:08:57Charting room.
01:08:59Colonel Evans.
01:09:00Major, there's a call here for Colonel Evans.
01:09:03This is Evans speaking.
01:09:05Who?
01:09:06Oh, yes.
01:09:07Hello, Doctor.
01:09:07Colonel, they've already brought in over 50 of your men and the people this afternoon.
01:09:12The monster's a giant germ carrier of a horrible virulent disease.
01:09:16Contact with the animal's blood can be fatal.
01:09:17If you use shell fire, who knows how far the air will spread the particles of it.
01:09:23The entire city can be endangered.
01:09:25All right, Doctor.
01:09:28Have the anti-submarine nets been raised across the Narrows?
01:09:30No, sir.
01:09:31What have them raised?
01:09:32Raise the anti-submarine nets.
01:09:34Raise the anti-submarine nets.
01:09:36We should have used flamethrowers.
01:09:38They would have cremated the beast and the plague with it.
01:09:40Flamethrowers?
01:09:40The smoke would have carried the blood particles just as far as the air.
01:09:43No, it will have to be reduced so that not even a cinder would remain.
01:09:48Any reports yet, Major?
01:09:50No sign as yet, Colonel.
01:09:52He may be dying at the bottom.
01:09:54We'll set the drags in the morning.
01:09:55Right.
01:09:56Attention.
01:09:56Monster ashore at Manhattan Beach.
01:09:59Heading towards amusement area.
01:10:00On land?
01:10:01I thought we had him in a corner pocket.
01:10:04Jack.
01:10:05There's only one way to beat him.
01:10:06How?
01:10:08Radioactive isotope.
01:10:10Shoot it into him and destroy all that diseased tissue.
01:10:12Shoot it into him and destroy all that diseased tissue.
01:10:42You keep your men alerted, Sergeant, but nobody's to fire unless specifically ordered to.
01:11:05Yes, sir.
01:11:07How soon, Tom?
01:11:09It'll be any minute now.
01:11:12Wait for us here.
01:11:42Hi, Professor Nesbitt.
01:11:54We've got your baby, Professor.
01:11:55Good.
01:11:56We need your best marksman, Jack.
01:11:58Right.
01:11:59Have him get into these.
01:12:12Here's your man, Tom.
01:12:19Colonel says you need a dead shot, mister.
01:12:21Yes.
01:12:22Ever use a grenade rifle?
01:12:23Pick my teeth with it.
01:12:24Good.
01:12:25You know what the radioactive isotope is?
01:12:28No, but if it can be loaded, I can fire it.
01:12:30I'll load it.
01:12:31Just remember one thing.
01:12:33It has to be shot into the wound.
01:12:35You have to make it the first time.
01:12:37This is the only isotope of its kind, this side of Old Grape, so you can't miss.
01:12:41Let's get to the target.
01:13:11You can't hit him from here, mister.
01:13:16You can't hit him from here, mister.
