What a coincidence, a friend was just asking me the other day if I'd heard of this... thanks! :beerchug:

Heh,I have freaked more little kids out with this movie than I think any in my collection. :mrgreen:

To be honest...I still look over my shoulder a bit when I ski because of the impact it had on me as a child

There are indeed loads of them and I'm currently having to write an essay so don't have time to post IMDB/ed2k links however here are some of the movies that I feel best represent this genre :

First, check out the Killer Aquatics link

<a href="http://forum.dead-donkey.com/viewtopic.php?t=1557&highlight=killer+aquatics" target=blank>Killer Aquatics</a>

then there are granpappy and granmamma:

Them! (1954)
The Birds (1963)

followed by:

Frogs (1972)
Phase IV (1974)
Bug (1975)
Squirm (1976)
The Food of the Gods (1976)
Kiss of the Tarantula (1976)
Kingdom of the Spiders (1977)
Empire of the Ants (1977)
The Swarm (1978)
The Savage Bees (TVM 1976)
The Bees (1978)

Dogs (1976)
The Pack (1977)
Grizzly (1976)
Claws (1977)
Day of the Animals (1977)
Nightwing (1979)
Alligator (1980)
Of Unknown Origin (1981)
Deadly Eyes (1982)
Cujo (1983)
Razorback (1984)

and my personal favourite:

Prophecy (1979)

........and there are many, many more (including plenty of Sasquatch related movies)!!!

Good luck in tracking them down - i know a few of them are out there!!!

The sasquatch movies I can pick up on..Legend of Boogey creek,Bigfoot,Sasquatch,yeti....ect....Now the bee movies I am missing 2 in my collection,Savage Bees and Bees....Spiders?....lots of spider movies...gonna need help on tracking them all down...ants..leeches...all sorts of pestilence....I need some Ideas....was gonna put the collection off for a bit but as some of you know I have been planning a "Bug Collection" for sometime...so maybe some of you other releasers can help out on this...I know I can always count on a few from str but some of you other guys...just try and see what you can get your hands on..if you can't rip it then look for it on edk....I am going to work on a definative list today as far as what needs to go there...I have a feeling it will be big but well worth it.Combining the bigfoot element with the bugs has me thinking that a bug collection wouldn't really fit into that.The place I go to grab my movies has a section called Vengeful Acts of a Wrathful God which basically throws bigfoot,bugs and other natural dilema into the mix like Earthquake and such,but doing it like that might be to much.Then again..with that collection maker I can always group them into genus/subgenus..Let me know what you all think on this..as of right now I am just going to collect bugs and then go from there :beerchug:

surely though it would be better to create a animals thread and a bugs thread or one containing both, otherwise you cant put things like the birds, bigfoot, alligator etc movies into bugs as theyre not

although personally i think the seperate bugs and seperate animals one would be best, coz then ppl can decide if they wann get movies with insects as the baddies, or big wild animals as the baddies as i feel theyre both different subgenres of the collection

DxaKrator · **Posted:** Tue Jun 01, 2004 1:56 am **Post subject:**

So where would you stick bigfoot?

maxpayne2409 · **Posted:** Tue Jun 01, 2004 2:08 am **Post subject:**

id stick bigfoot in a bigshoe :lol:

, hehe id stick bigfoot in the animals one, after all hes only an overgrown ape

, well ehs certainly no insect is he

DxaKrator · **Posted:** Tue Jun 01, 2004 2:29 am **Post subject:**

hehe..ok then..2 seperate collections..with bigfoot going in the ape dept. :lol:

Maybe a catastrophe collection too?

If u want to split it up why not try these sub-sections-

Fish/Crustacea (already pretty much covered under the Killer Aquatics section)

Creepy Crawlies (this could include spiders, bees, ants etc.)

Reptiles (then you could include films like Sssssss, Spasms etc.)

Birds (only The Birds and Rene Cardona Jrs. Beaks spring to mind but I'm sure there must be others)

Mammals (you could include Bigfoot in here along with the bears, dogs, rats etc.)

then if u want to include disaster movies:

Natural Disasters (Earthquake, Airport, Poseidon Adventure, Titanic (just kidding!!!) etc.)

and u may also want to include

Post-apocalyptic (Mad Max (and about a million Italian rip-offs), Escape From New York etc.)

So how is this going people?Anyone finished yet?

Jynks · **Posted:** Fri Jun 25, 2004 1:23 am **Post subject:**

I have just finished this myself but I could not play it.... the file starts off fine then just stops after the credits,, I can not forward or backward scrub or anything.. any ideas?

DxaKrator · **Posted:** Fri Jun 25, 2004 2:43 am **Post subject:**

Sounds like a codec problem.What does gspot tell you?Works fine here all the way through.It is either your codecs or the file got corrupted somehow.Let me know what your gspot says.

borntobewild · **Posted:** Fri Jun 25, 2004 2:48 am **Post subject:**

I've got it and it plays fine for me.
