I was just shown this on another forum that I'm a member of by another member who happens to be an incredibly talented aspiring director and fx artist. It's an incredibly awesome looking new 18 minute kaiju short film called "THE UNKNOWN CREATURE". The creator describes it so: " Basically, the movie is about an unknown species of reptile that is accidentally transplanted to the US from the Amazon. It suffers from some kind of injury which causes it to grow uncontrollably (ala Ymir), until it just disappears. A scientist tries to track it down but fails to do so. The story was supposed to be a mix of x-files style detective work with some good ol' Creature from the Black Lagoon as well." Here's some production pics/sketches from the creator's website[I LOVE the design of the creature]: http://argantoa.com/extimages/p_uc_demo_5_ezg_2.jpg and: http://argantoa.com/extimages/p_uc_demo_4_ezg_2.jpg and: http://argantoa.com/extimages/p_uc_demo_1_ezg_2.jpg and: http://argantoa.com/documents/uc_final_2_ezg_1.jpg and finally the website which includes a demo reel[in the images section] with scenes from the film: http://argantoa.com/ Extremely/Incredibly awesome huh?? I kind of get a "The Host x. X-Files" vibe. Finally a kaiju film that's not all about two monsters duking it out or a monster vs. the military and destroying a city. Not that there's anything wrong with that, but it's nice to see new takes on an old genre. Would LOVE to hear you guys/gals opinions on this one!!
