[dermott37]

Ace film & the Predator score goes well too hehe love it!!!

[dltanner99]

Horror novel see video book trailer

[majomor]

great post -this one contains some of Ray's finest work...

[stuarttothemax]

by far my favorite stop-motion giant monster. next to everything in nightmare before chirstmas that is..

[ighforever]

all the monster wanted was a decent hamburger. was that to much to ask for?

[tomkes100]

53 years later this 57 classic packs a wallop ww that monster is AWESOMe this horror film historian knows. TOMKES

[mnap128]

lol Predator music!!!!!!

[alittlespacey]

Does anyone else hear REM, end of the world as we know it, starting at about :23?

[CmdrData82]

yeah its strange

[AceTheSalmon]

Holy crap you're right!

[radioclash81]

@alittlespacey Yes, it's definitely there--it evidently was somehow embedded in the music they used for the video.

[politicalanomaly]

I'm just assuming that this is the same guy who did the stop animation in the clash of the titans

because that monsters head looks exactly like the krakens in that movie

[sgtbillybobby]

politicalanomaly, yeah it is the same guy, his name is ray harryhausen, he did the animation for loads of films at this time, clash of the titans, jason and the argonauts and the seventh voyage of sinbad are a few =]

[mnap128]

yeh it is Ray Harryhausen's special effect.... the Kraken is def the same head lol

[Kyonekomexico]

wow the effects is very futuristc how can make that rocket or that? with computers i dont think so

[catchersmitt0]

Why is there an elephant at 1:16?

[politicalanomaly]

because a elephant is more powerful than artillery or bazooka's or any of that stuff

don't you know a venus monsters only weakness is an elephant :)

[marcus7665]

lol!!

[thrasherandrew]

i always watched this movie long ago with my father. =)

[Dinobot2468]

i loved this movie and ray rocks. i feel sorry fot the ymir in the end

[eluctari]

its remind me the european fantastic film festival of strasbourg, great Spectre Film

[hailbrainiac]

Ray later used this creature again by revamping it into the Cyclops in The 7th Voyage of Sinbad.A shame but Ray said they were on a tight budget.

[Dinobot2468]

did they he never mentioned that

[tempusfugit68]

I think the idea for Cloverdale was taking from this movie.

[Firestar108]

yea, lol, i thought it was the kraken at first glance!

[Charade31596]

I agree with zinkeuel. Although the Kraken would KILL this monster. It's about 10 times it's size and has 4 arms. They should make a movie that has every single Ray Harryhausen movie monster fighting. That would be awesome! XD!

[zinkeuel]

The creatures is very similar to the Kraken..

[revolutionpm]

Very good observation, Zikeul!!

[polarsequence]

haha, I love at the start of this movie, where the huge spaceship crashes into the sea just a few hundred meters from the fisherman, and their small boats don't even rock! Surely something that size would cause a considerable wave that would overwhelm them! :) Classic movie tho!

[troyt10]

the elephant gets minced

[mattrockshell]

nice

[Rollandihno]

Predator music theme.

[emmanuel1218]
