Movies with giant animals due to mans idiocy.

chibimod3 · 08-10-2009, 10:45 AM

Yeah there are so many to even count but I still think a few of them might be ok. I mean I don't know how many movies they show on scifi that have this as the main theme.

Well over half of them are snakes or spiders. They show a new one every couple of weeks. One on yesterday was spiders attacking a ski lodge and I thought why would they go after people and not animals first due to the fact the chemical spill causing their mutation was about 30 miles north of the lodge. With no reports of giant webs or decreasing animal population. I mean they traveled to the site from the lodge even and lost all except the main two lovers as usual.

But I wanted to hear everyone's take on how this sort of thing has been put out so many times in the past 9 years that watching them and their horrendous footage. So if you do know of any good movies like this tell the world so they can ignore the other crap. I personally enjoy movies like this and wish they would get something new to them.

Its been going on for longer than nine years...

A prime example...

What you described, just sounds like a crappy scy-fy channel original...

It's actually something that has been going on since the beginning of cinema, with a number of movies about giant ants and spiders and nonsense having been made in black and white.

Many of them are unintentionally hilarious.

In one of my art books, it suggested using maggots, snakes, and centipedes for cheap revulsion.

Seen million cheap vermin and animal movies, but after Sharks on a Gondola, I don't want to watch anymore.

WHAT HAS SCIENCE DONE?!

Metal Man · 08-10-2009, 02:21 PM

According to most of these movies, it has inexplicably made bugs we wouldn't want to see at any size larger about 300x larger than they should be, if not more.

Robotazy · 08-10-2009, 02:36 PM

THE OOOOOOZE

Metal Man · 08-10-2009, 03:22 PM

One thing I don't get, is how it always makes them bigger.

What about smaller animals getting into places they shouldn't be?

**Valigarmander** · 08-10-2009, 03:31 PM

^ Like a rapidly-reproducing, destructive virus that enters peoples bloodstreams and eats them up from the inside out?

...Christ, don't let the Sci-Fi Channel get ahold of that idea and bastardize it.

Metal Man · 08-10-2009, 07:08 PM

Yeah, that'd be totally awesome.

King Kong

Vgfian · 08-10-2009, 10:46 PM

King Kong was naturally at that size though, wasn't he?

**Valigarmander** · 08-10-2009, 10:48 PM

True. So was Godzilla. But they both came and beat the crap out of things due to "man's idiocy" (King Kong was taken to New York and put on show; Godzilla was awakened by underwater nuclear testing).

Luigiman7 · 08-10-2009, 10:51 PM

the Sci-Fi channel is just dumb, that's why.

Vgfian · 08-10-2009, 10:52 PM

^^ I thought Godzilla was transformed by nuclear testing. hmm. this changes some things...

Metal Man · 08-10-2009, 11:24 PM

Yeah, the origins of some popular large monsters tends to get lost due to their confusing sequels.

**Valigarmander** · 08-11-2009, 01:41 AM

Didn't the 80's remake of King Kong have a sequel where King Kong was resuscitated by scientists after falling from the building, in order to mate with a female Kong?

What the hell was that?

Rainbow Dash · 08-11-2009, 09:29 AM

Son of Kong?

Metal Man · 08-12-2009, 01:27 PM

Sounds like a cheap excuse to make a sequel to me.

And why not? In this genre, it seems like that's the norm.
