Handlung
WUSSTEST DU SCHON:
- WissenswertesThe live action scenes and a majority of the stop motion effects were all filmed in 1994, but David Allen, the director, had passed away due to cancer in 1999. The studio that was making this movie, Full Moon Studios, was also having financial issues so they had to keep postponing the production of the movie, until they ran out of money and had to shelf it. In 2019, after an online fundraising campaign, the original effects artist, Chris Endicott, returned to complete the remaining stop motion sequences.
- Alternative VersionenTwo edits were created, one for general release, and "The David Allen Version," which was compiled for home video. Running 7 minutes longer, it features several unfinished scenes in which storyboarded creatures are animated into the filmed footage. Notable scenes include an extended sequence in which the group tries to evade a dinosaur-like creature, a more extensive flashback scene in the UFO, and numerous additional moments with the creatures at the film's climax.

Ausgewählte Rezension
Finally we have a Harryhausen´s movie in the 21ts century, in 2024. This is incredeible! The tribute they pay to films like Willis O´ Brian stop motion´s FX in King Kong is fantastic!
Against the CGI, we have animatronics, practical FX, some CGI, but low and a story like Harryhausen´s movies told us. Actors are in a second position in this movie; the really stars are the puppets in stop motion (there is one scene where we can see hundreds of them moving). I never thought we could see again something like this in big screen. The technique of stop motion is incredibly well done. The motion of the puppets and the realism in the mixing with real life caracters is incredibly well done!
The plot and the acting is a little bit hole, I mean we see woodden faces and a poor acting but, what the hell? For a fan of Harryhausen´s movie and a person that is bored with CGI, we have here a great achievement.
This is a movie that Joe Dante, John Landis, Guillermo del Toro, Tarantino and Christopher Nolan would like to see; so if you are one of those crazy people that love the old Sci fi B series or Z series cinema, this is yours! Don´t miss it!
Well done Charles Band, David Allen and company from FULL MOON Features!
7 stars out of 10.
