DEADLY MANTIS 1957 (UNIVERSAL)

Classi giant monster movie features Craig Stevens, Alix Talton and William Hopper as three people trying to stop a giant mantis from destroying all in it's path. The Clifford Stein effects are good the era and I hold this up as a shining example of great 50's monster movie filmmaking.
The scene where the mantis attacks the headquaters of the Army is very well done as well as it landing on the Washington Monument.
If you like 50's monster movies like I do, this is an absolute must. Highly Recommended!!
