it's so unintentionally funny! I know special effects weren't very sophisticated when this movie was made but couldn't the producers see how bad this 'terror' looked?
Probably sell lots of these though because there are people - like me - who love to see and collect bad movies like this.
Yep. Jim Henson's workshop was busy in the early days. A Punked-out, snaggle-toothed flying horror from my youth. What Hollywood did to scare audiences back then. I'll take The Curse of the Demon, or, The Tingler, over this one anytime!
@boy18inva I know, i mena i love a good cheesy movie (Flash Gordon 1980 was a friggin' classic because fo how cheesy it was) but this is meant to be a monster movie and the monster isn't even scary... no wonder hardly anyone knows about it... just a pity JJ Abrams did the same thing but with bigge rbudget and better effects...
@boy18inva No actually, to a ten year kid old this movie was very scary! We didn't realize how fake it was. In the 50s there were a lot worse monster movies than this. Today people don't appreciate fear because they've become immune to all the special effects on the screen. Back then you had to use your own imagination a little bit.

Vortex42; you are correct. It was footage of the scene from " Earth Vs The Flying Saucers " where one of the flying saucers hits the Washington Monument & topples it onto the fleeing people.
my parents dropped me and my older brother off at the Saturday matinee to see this while they went home and made us another brother. We got 40 cents to get in and share a coke and some popcorn. I was 9, he was 12 and my arm still hurts from him punching me when it got exciting.
Oh, I remember seeing this movie years ago on the afternoon movie! There was another one I remember with invisible monsters killing people, when they were finally made visible, they were a brain with a spinal cord that floated around strangling people! I bet it looks even worse now than it did then!
@odiousj I did not got scared...but the only reasons why (I guess) I saw the entire movie where I was around 10 then...AND THERE WAS NO OTHER TV CHANNEL ON MY CITY (don't even dream with colour tv, neither cable...and internet was as sci-fi as the "Carcagna") xD xD
@odiousj This was one of the greatest Monsters ever. It's totally cheesy today, but it was horrifying when we were kids. No reason to be ashamed that you were scared. It was scary!
No, that wouldn't work. Godzilla, with his atomic breath, would simply vaporize it. See, you gotta send in Gamera. With his fire-breath, he'd cook the bird until it fell out of the sky and landed like a cooked chicken on a plate, the way birds do in cartoons. Then Gamera and Godzilla could eat it Kentucky Fried.
Hi, i'm trying to find this vintage movie i remember watching it when i'm very small. What i can remember is that a group of ancient people discover Giant Eggs and they carried the huge egg back. they cracked the giant egg for meal. can any1 help me think of this movie?
A giant retarded bird! He must have come from another galaxy. We've charted all the planets in this galaxy by 1958, so it must have come from another one. And he's big, so it't probably one of those anti-mater ones.
I read somewhere that the actors in this movie weren't shown during the production how the "Giant Claw" would look. When the premier was shown, they were so mortified by the cheesy look of the "monster" that they slunk out of the theater trying not to be seen.
@MrMonkeyWars You're right, I thought they recycled the monster model, but I just went back and re-watched. The condor he fights in GvsSM is not the same as this one.
pause @ 1:15 isn't that guy that plays the psycopath in one of those silent night deadly night movies? the one who always moves his eyebrows when he is talking?
THE GIANT CLAW is one of four movies in the Icons of Horror DVD set devoted to Sam Katzman (the other three movies in the set are CREATURE WITH THE ATOM BRAIN, ZOMBIES OF MORA TAU and THE WEREWOLF).
That bird is extra terrestrial, comes from outer space... from some god forsaken anti-matter galaxy billions and millions of lightyears from the earth
I saw this movie at the drive-in with my parents and siblings when I was about 7 or 8 and it literally scared the shit of me. When I got a chance to see it again as an adult, I had to laugh because it was then I noticed the fishing line and just how silly and ridiculous the bird looks. Young kids should not watch movies that are scary as it can affect them way into adulthood.
