The Black Scorpion

1957 • NR • Series • Catalog pick

They're big. They're bad. They scuttle along in caverns miles beneath the Earth - until an earthquake opens paths to the surface. Now, these monsters of genus Arachnida are invading our world with deadly force! With top special effects co-designed by King Kongs Willis OBrien, The Black Scorpion is horror with a sting more lethal than the king-sized ants that overran Los Angeles sewers in the classic Them! Can humankind survive these invincible juggernauts? That fate rests on the shoulders of Hank Scott (1950s monster-movie stalwart Richard Denning) as the creatures rip a train from it's track, snatch a helicopter from the sky and, in the films most gripping sequence, battle each other in their subterranean lair. Watch out!
