Logic and science are mashed together with fantastic scenarios to produce some absolutely unbelievable plotlines. In 1957&#8217;s <strong><em>The Giant Claw<\/em><\/strong>, a gigantic bird begins smashing planes out of the sky for no apparent reason. The highlight of the movie is when a scientist explains its extraterrestrial origins with a completely straight face.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Like many science fiction films of the time, <strong><em>The Giant Claw<\/em><\/strong> begins with an expository montage of military stock footage. An electronics engineer named Mitch Macafee (Jeff Morrow) is flying test runs in a jet fighter to help calibrate anti-aircraft radar positions in the Arctic. His partner, mathematician Sally Caldwell (Mara Caraday,) assists him on the ground. When Macafee sees a UFO the size of a battleship, the Air Force scrambles aircraft to intercept. The pilots see nothing but one of their planes goes missing. Macafee is accused of costing a man his life.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Soon, though, sightings of this giant UFO spread over the northern United States. The military &#8212; forced to take the reports seriously &#8212; calls Macafee and Caldwell in to help them battle this menace to national security.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><strong><em>The Giant Claw<\/em><\/strong> begins as a rather taut and suspenseful thriller. That edifice shatters as soon as the &#8220;UFO&#8221; appears on-screen for the first time. The bird is portrayed by a giant, clumsy puppet. It appears to be a vulture with a Mohawk and a hilariously extended neck. The accompanying sound effects &#8212; the bird&#8217;s call &#8212; are more annoying than scary. With its strings clearly visible, nostrils flaring, and ping-pong ball eyes bulging out of their sockets, the bird (who is never named) inevitably trumps any attempt to make the film frightening.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Aside from the awful special effects, there&#8217;s little else of note in <strong><em>The Giant Claw<\/em><\/strong>. The story follows the same general arc of most monster films of the time. Jeff Morrow, who constantly grimaces like he&#8217;s soiled his pants, humorlessly delivers lines like, &#8220;Listen, General, this idea of mine may prove to be as phony as a three dollar bill, but I still think it&#8217;s worth a listen.&#8221;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Since there always has to be a love interest, Mara Caraday&#8217;s Sally and Morrow&#8217;s Macafee have to awkwardly snog. Caraday appears as if she&#8217;s lost a bet every time she&#8217;s required to kiss Morrow&#8217;s character. And, as the film is a product of its time, Sally may be a mathematician but she&#8217;s also required to fetch sandwiches and coffee for the men while they chat about the bird.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>For fans of bad movies, <strong><em>The Giant Claw<\/em><\/strong> is a must-see. Those with more refined tastes will only wonder who in their right mind would think this movie would succeed.<\/p>\n\n\n<span class=\"fsrs\"><span class=\"fsrs-stars\"><i class=\"fsrs-fas fa-fw fa-star \"><\/i><i class=\"fsrs-fas fa-fw fa-star \"><\/i><i class=\"fsrs-far fa-fw fa-star \"><\/i><i class=\"fsrs-far fa-fw fa-star \"><\/i><i class=\"fsrs-far fa-fw fa-star \"><\/i><\/span><span class=\"hide fsrs-text fsrs-text__hidden\" aria-hidden=\"false\">2.0 out of 5.0 stars<\/span><span class=\"lining fsrs-text fsrs-text__visible\" aria-hidden=\"true\">2.0<\/span><\/span>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>With its strings clearly visible, nostrils flaring, and ping-pong ball eyes bulging out of their sockets, the bird (who is never named) inevitably trumps any attempt to make the film frightening.
