Does this sound familiar? A meteor crashes to Earth, near human habitation, “something” comes out of the meteor and proceeds to run amok among the local human populace. Or it could be a human built space craft, returning from Mars, Venus or the moon and “something” gets loose near a city or small town and creates mayhem every where it goes. Or it could be an alien spacecraft, or even big seed pods.
My point being, this is one well used concept in science fiction movies, especially science fiction monster movies. You wouldn’t think there was much film makers could do to return to that story and do something new with it. The fine Irish film crew that created Grabbers did exactly that.
Part of my post duty orders here at We Are Movie Geeks is to shine a spotlight on little known and largely unseen moves that deserve a larger audience.
