"Tarantula 2: The offspring"

Tried to go for a 50s B&W Horror / Monster movie look & feel

(See reply for BTS)

#Toyphotography #H0 #B&W #B&Wphotography #GreyScale #GreyScalePhotography #photography #MonochromePhotography #Horror #MonsterMovie #50s #50sCinema #HorrorSky #Tarantula #Spiders
A H0 1:87 train scale toy photograph. It is made to look like a 50s B&W Horror / Monster movie title drop. The scene shows a town over run with giant spiders. In the main focus in the centre is a just married pair and some priests that are running from a church with a giant spider on it. On the left a dark figure is running from a military vehicle with a spider on it, on the right a woman with shopping bags is running from a car crushed by a spider. Above it all the Title "TARANTULA! 2" is shown.

Hollywood funnyman Jerry Lewis would later confirm that once having eaten rugged RIFLEMAN star Chuck Connors, he was in fact left with a bitter metallic aftertaste.
