Two illustrations in two days. Nice lol.

Anyway, this is the Behemoth monster from the 1959 black and white movie that I guess nowadays goes by the title of "Behemoth the Sea Monster". Though when I grew up and saw it on TNT's Monstervision...it was called The Giant Behemoth. It's a fun giant monster movie honestly. The effects were done by Willis O'Brian. (King Kong guy), and it has a pretty ok cast. The movie is really sort of a loose remake of The Beast From 20,000 Fathoms. At least it was after it was changed....More on that later.

But this monster is a giant dinosaur that has absorbed a tremendous amount of radiation that is actually slowly killing the monster. He is suppose to be Palaeosaurus (a genus of dinos that has had a oddball and convoluted history in the taxonomy world that I am not even going to begin to state here.). The dino also has the ability to generate electricity like an eel....for reasons......which in turn, it uses to cast off the ions of radiation from it's body........ Look I don't understand it either lol!

The movie is barely 70's minutes and is a fun ride. Though the scene of the bad puppet in the River Thames does make me laugh though haha.

So....yeah, I just wanted an image of the guy looking at Big Ben. And because this is not a Japanese monster....I thought it would be fun to make my own subtitles for him. For him, and ever other none Ultraman monster too. So I kept the Giant in his name and just added the title of Biblical to it because he is after all named after for the famous monster from the bible.

So I am going to end this little write up here with a little bit of trivia about the movie. The reason that I said...."The movie is really sort of a loose remake of The Beast From 20,000 Fathoms. At least it was after it was changed"........... is because the movie was not suppose to involve a giant dino monster. It was suppose to be an amorphous radioactive blob. In fact you can see this in the movie, cause one of the characters in the movie finds a glowing blob like "stuff" on a beach. For some godly unknown reason he touches it!! Which of course cause radiation burns on the back of his hand. The next day the white gunk is washed out to shore and the movie never freaking mentions it again!! >_< So who knows what it is suppose to be actually in the context of the "revamped" script.

Oddly enough....we did have a radiation blob creature in 1956 with The X Unknown.....but that is another monster for another time. Till then, see ya later you monster lovers!!
