How It Feels
Read from this film's synopsis, keywords and credits, and used to work out what it sits beside.
A delightfully campy creature feature where colossal scorpions erupt from volcanic depths to terrorize Mexico. It's earnest B-movie spectacle, part disaster film, part creature horror, with the low-budget charm and pulpy energy of 1950s sci-fi monster cinema.
