I was leaning towards a D+ but things perked up a bit on the train.  This is based on the Rudyard Kipling novella and directed by John Huston, who cowrote the screenplay.

Yes, the title is redundant, although it was also known as Behemoth the Sea Monster and simply The Behemoth.  Anyway, this Anglo-American production sits on that fence between enjoyably campy and too earnest for its own good.  Douglas Hickox and Eugène Lourié co-directed.
