We try our hand at a video based review of the old favorite animated series, “Jonny Quest”. Join our host, Exejo Smith, and his take on “The Invisible Monster” episode.
Very twisted clip from John Carpenter’s The Thing. A chest that opens up and sports big, jagged fangs? The better to bite your hands off with! Ugly. Outstanding mechanical visual effects by Rob Bottin. All these monster effects had to be built from wire frames and then dressed to achieve the required look and then remotely made to function by one or more operators A lot of motors, wires, cables and what have you brought these monsters to life. Disney called them animatronics. They don’t make them like this anymore. CG is much quicker and cheaper.
