Should have been called the scorpions that ate Mexico.

Black Scorpion, is another semi classic, 50s giant monster movie. It should have been called the scorpions that ate Mexico. If you enjoy other movies from the 50s that feature giant insects or other huge monsters wreaking havoc on mankind, you will also like Black Scorpion. You do have to keep in mind that this was made in 1957. Don't be looking for the thrills you can get from the special effects in today's horror movies. The movie has to be viewed within the context of the time it was released. For it's time, the special effects were great. This was truly a scary movie for it's time and continues to be exciting today. I found this to be a very entertaining movie and recommend it to anyone who enjoys the giant monsters of the 50s and early 60s. Enjoy.

Anecdotes
A typical Willis O'Brien touch - in a long shot of the cage descending into the cave, a tiny stop motion bat flies across the screen. Only O'Brien would add another day's work to a scene where it would be barely noticed.

Most likely due to budgetary issues, the voices of the opening sequence's narrator, the police radio dispatcher, the radio newscaster, and the public address announcer are all the same. Specifically, it belongs to Bob Johnson, best remembered for being heard in the opening sequence of most episodes of Mission impossible (1966) ("Good morning, Mr. Phelps...").
