Die Bestie aus dem Weltraum (1957)
Auf dem Rückflug von der Venus müssen zwei Astronauten im Mittelmeer notlanden. Ein rätselhaftes venusisches Ei geht verloren, ein Junge findet es und verkauft es an einen Wissenschaftler. Das geschlüpfte Tier entwickelt sich zu einem Reptil, das Ymir genannt und in den römischen Zoo gebracht wird. Ymir wächst zu einem saurierähnlichen Urmonster heran und bricht aus. Nach einem Kampf mit einem Elefantenbullen zieht sich Ymir in das Kolosseum zurück. Die italienische Armee vernichtet Ymir mit Granatwerfern.
