It is scary that I knew the story was about a giant scorpion as soon as I saw your comment. Either that or a Medusa...


Damn that movie looks cheesy now, but I still love it.

Please tell me that isn't "Clash of the Titans".

It looked so much cooler when I was a kid.

Bah.  Stop action only started meeting its match these last three to five years.  Wallace & Grommit shows there's still plenty of life in the medium.

Stop action can look pretty good on its own, but it usually looks really bad if it's bluescreened into a live action shot.  Especially if the framerate on the stop action is lower, or they screw up the lighting, or both (like in most old movies where it's used heavily), because the difference is visually jarring.
