The latest film from cult auteur Brett Piper (They Bite, The Screaming Dead, Raiders of the Living Dead) Queen Crab is – from start to finish – a loving, action-packed tribute to the classic days of practical stop-motion animation, evoking the days of Ray Harryhausen creature features.
The official synopsis reads thus: A meteor crashes into a quiet lake in the remote countryside, awakening a centuries-old beast. She emerges from the deep and tears through a nearby town and its inhabitants. The humans must fight for their lives and stop this Queen Crab before she can hatch an army of babies that will overrun the entire world.
Though to be fair that synopsis exagerates things a little. It’s more a case of girl develops relationship with a crab,...

The giant crab portion of the nature run amok sub-genre has been woefully under-served, but indie flick director Brett Piper is looking to change that with his latest flick, Queen Crab. Check out the first stills and more.
The film has wrapped and is now in post-production. Piper writes and directs the film, which stars Michelle Simone Miller, Kathryn Metz, A.J. DeLucia, and Danielle Donahue. No official plot synopsis was available at press time, but if you check out the stills below, well, I think they pretty much speak for themselves... Giant crab goes on rampage... wrecks structures... and kills townsfolk. Really? That's all that we want! Dig on the cool old-school stop-motion action of the clip.
