The Giant Claw (1957)

 Low budget sci-fi flick from Columbia in which a giant, silly looking, vulture like bird appears in Canadian air space, attacks commercial and military aircraft, and generally creates havoc. Some scientists, military officers and a beautiful woman defeat the thing in 75 minutes of run time. I spent the film ruminating about how it's events would have effected the world, one conclusion I came up with is that there would be no Big Bird on Seseme Street. *1/2
