Summary[edit]

Description
English: Starring Peter Graves, Peggie Castle, and Morris Ankrum, Beginning of the End is a 1957 American science fiction film produced and directed by Bert I. Gordon. An agricultural scientist, played by Graves, successfully grows gigantic vegetables using radiation. Unfortunately, the vegetables are eaten by locusts (the swarming phase of short-horned grasshoppers), and thus, the movie is off and running. Beginning of the End is generally known for its "atrocious" special effects, "and yet," writes reviewer Bill Warren, "there is something almost compellingly watchable about this goofy little movie"
