What Gorgo is

Irish coast. Trawling nets, late summer. A roar. Two salvage men dredge up a massive, reptilian infant from the ocean floor. Londoners soon gawk at "Gorgo" caged for their amusement, unaware of what maternal horror ascends from the Atlantic deep. Eugène Lourié’s creature feature anticipates a certain kaiju calculus.
