Looks like a GPO - giant Pacific Octopus to me. They commonly grow to between 50 - 100 lbs and can have an 8' or longer reach. They are found throughout the PNW.
Uncle Pug relates a very funny story about how a buddy decided to wrestle a rather large GPO. There were similar results as in the film. Pug flooded his mask a number of times he was laughing so hard.
They are normal very docile and shy creatures and only get aggressive if you act that way towards them or you have food.
