Them! Might Be Giants
These giant-sized pests are mutations!
Not shy, they digest human rations!
They're massive, evolving
Their acid dissolving...
Sci-fi has the best exclamations!
THEM! (Gordon Douglas; 1954) was originally conceived as a color and 3D film. Those plans were scrapped, though many of the camera set-ups for 3D still remain, like the opening titles and shots of flamethrowers aimed directly at the camera. And the film's titles were printed in a vivid red-and-blue against a black-and-white background in order to give the film's opening a dramatic "punch". This effect was achieved by an Eastman Color section being spliced into each release print. (Source: Wikipedia)
