“Deadline” is the best stop-motion short film you’ll see today

The Dark Crystal-holy crap this scared me as a kid.

I now remember why I’ve been afraid of this movie for over 20 yrs.  I don’t remember the plot other than there are some scary vulture-like creatures that speak an in shrill tones and suck the life out of others.  I like to think it was an early introduction to politicians.

So, so song, but a cool video.

“The Giant Spider Invasion”

From 1975, comes the pinnacle of horror, The Giant Spider Invasion.  Before watching, consider these other movies released the same year:  Jaws, One Flew Over the Cuckoo’s Nest, and Dod Day Afternoon.  I’d say this horror classic stacks up nicely.

Stephen King’s “The Talisman”

This is a demo film by director Mathieu Ratthe in an attempt to secure the rights to make Stephen King’s “The Talisman” into a feature film.  Ratthe explains below:

“The Talisman – “DEMO SCENE” is based on a novel by Stephen King and Peter Straub.

My main objective for creating this piece is to demonstrate my directing ability and my vision to the producers who own the rights to the story: STEVEN SPIELBERG & KATHLEEN KENNEDY.

Among the key players who lent their support to this project are Cameron Bright (X-Men: The Last Stand, Birth) who starred in the leading role, the Montreal-based company Buzz Image (300; The Aviator) who created the visual effects. The scene was shot in two days.
