Insects in movies

Who watched sednya "shiver"?

Has anyone watched the movie Mutants (Mimic)? What Do you Think? In my opinion, it deserves attention.
Here is a review from kinoport.net:
"The action of a fantastic "horror" in the spirit of "Alien" based on the story of Donald E. Wallheim takes place in the near future, and maybe even in our days. A deadly cockroach-borne disease is spreading in the United States. The husband (Charles S. Dutton) and his wife (Myra Sorvino), genetic scientists, artificially create an insect that destroys the carriers of the infection and itself dies, unable to produce offspring. A few years pass, and terrible events begin to occur in New York - some creature that looks like a long freak in a black raincoat, something like a cross between Freddy Krueger and Darkman, kills and devours people, leaving behind only stinking feces. Children bring one of the cubs of this monster, and all the same scientists find out that over the years their mutants have gone through a huge course of evolution, resulting in this terrible killer who can walk around in the subway like a man. In order to save humanity from winged monsters (a creature invented and created by Rob Bottin), scientists need to kill the male producer - he is one for all. Although I'm not a big fan of such films, I watched it all from beginning to end. The film is very stylish and exciting, despite the fact that most of the action takes place in the gloomy and dark mazes of the "subway". I recommend it even for those who don't like this kind of movie. "

"Human larva" and "Human mosquito" ... ppts simply

Come on, scare each other!
"The extraordinary adventures of Karik and Vali"!!!
A hundred pounds!
And Sovetsky Karlson in the main role!

And besides "The Extraordinary Adventures of Karik and Vali" and "Captain Grant's Children", is there at least one film where the entomologist is shown positively?

Ha, I also remembered the brilliant film "Deja Vu". "I'm an entomologist on my way to Sumatra to catch butterflies"

And besides "The Extraordinary Adventures of Karik and Vali" and "Captain Grant's Children", is there at least one film where the entomologist is shown positively?

"That's right! It's so harmful!"

And besides "The Extraordinary Adventures of Karik and Vali" and "Captain Grant's Children", is there at least one film where the entomologist is shown positively?

Well, in the Canadian "Blue Butterfly", for example. There's also the French film Butterfly, which I haven't got out yet. Although, Doyle's Sir Thomas Rossiter, Stapleton, all sorts of Buffalo Bill from Ohio and the popular Mavrodi, of course, outweigh. Stamp, what can I say here.

There is also the French film "The Butterfly"

Not this one? http://imdb.com/title/tt0070511/

Not this one? http://imdb.com/title/tt0070511/

Talk lessa on tv3 saw the movie "Locusts: The Eighth Execution"
From the description:
A group of scientists is struggling to cope with a terrible scourge, a multimillion-dollar cloud of locusts has escaped from a secret laboratory, which destroys everything in its path...
Ppts, locusts devour people, have reached the end...

who watched Max Payne?
It's snowing outside, it's winter, and there are about 5 healthy gray moths spinning around the streetlight, the size of kossus, or even larger ^_^

So, since the conversation went off topic, I also get involved.
In short:
the French cartoon Minuscule (boogers, I suppose)
download here: http://forum.funkysouls.com/index.php?act=...=67&t=148076&s=
You must watch it!!!

In principle, those who wish can then discuss what the animators have come across, but I did not have such a desire, although I know for sure that wasps do not refuel in the air, and ladybugs do not trumpet something like fan chants.

And what a cool spider in the history of Silence!

P.S. I download the links from the post #3950577

yes, yes, yes, there is such a cartoon on my dvd - just super lying around)))

Cartoon "Gagarin" just ze best!

With tears of pride for diptera, I always watch the dreadful "Fly". Moreover, any - there are many different ones, remakes, a fertile theme. Modern viewers are best known for "The Fly" with Jeff Goldblum in the title role (this is who also starred in "Jurassic Park", "Independence Day", etc.). In the same "Park" there is a scene with mosquitoes-bloodsucking dinosaurs. I try not to pay attention to inconsistencies with entomology in these films... And so - the number of horror films with insects in the main roles, from papier-mache or digital, simply cannot be described!

In short:
the French cartoon Minuscule (boogers, I suppose)

"Crumbs"? The film is really super! Those who have seen it, I think, will understand and support me. We strongly recommend that everyone else watch it furiously! Although this "French-European" animated series (or movie ?) it's a big one by itself, so maybe it's easier to buy a disk (s) right away? And yet - the film is equally liked by both adults and children, which is rare. My eldest (then he was 5 years old) used boiling water to write at the ceiling.

And besides "The Extraordinary Adventures of Karik and Vali" and "Captain Grant's Children", is there at least one film where the entomologist is shown positively?

Verne's fifteen-year-old Captain , Cousin Benedict with his Benedict hexapod . Paganel from The Children of Cap. Granta is a geographer, although with a broad outlook ...Although Cousin Benedict is somehow difficult to call an impeccable character, but in comparison with Negoro (sic! Nodar Mgaloblishvili) he's just a hero.

Not exactly insects, but at least arthropods..
Yesterday on TV3 they showed the movie "Frozen horror"
So, the company that produces oil in Antarctica, something zachudil with the ice shelf and caused an earthquake, as a result of which the creature frozen in it unfrozen and got out. This thing can move on land, hunt, wrap its tentacle around people and knock them down, and then either eat them or drink their blood. The speed of movement is about the same as that of a slow-running person, the length is about a meter. It was a trilobite!!! An Aztec and evil trilobite crawls on land and eats people! By the way, according to the creators of the film, trilobites became extinct 10,000,000 years ago, but in the Cambrian period! After eating a certain number of people, he was doused with a shotgun. At the end, there was a stronger earthquake, and another creature, apparently anomalocaris, tried to get out of the pool at the station. But before she could, she was blown up along with half the base. And already right before the credits, someone's tentacle flashes against the background of the burning base, probably an orthocon. How would he move on land, I wonder!?
Oh, yes, another blunder: the substance found in the wounds caused by trilobite (either an anticoagulant, or poison), it turns out, was also extracted from fossilized Siberian beetles found in the Cambrian period!!! It's amazing how we still don't know the DNA of dinosaurs from the Precambrian!

Oh!
There is a movie "Moth", where Dustin Hoffman starred in one of the main roles. There is an episode where convicts catch morpho in the Jungle.

There's also the 007 movie On Her Majesty's Secret Service (starring Lazenby). In one scene, Bond arrives at the mansion of M (his boss) and goes into a room with boxes of butterflies hanging on the walls. M is straightening out a lepidoptera. Bond looks reproachfully at the straightener and says the key phrase of the whole bond:
-"This specimen is rather small for Nymphalis polychloros.
"
That's it

In the Italian comedy "The Taming of the Shrew" there is a cool scene. The main character, a gruff, avoidant female farmer (Adriano Celintano), tries to resist the charms of an unexpected guest (Arnela Muti). The owner of the house was simply stunned to see a charming girl who effectively appeared in the room for dinner. I was so stunned that I spilled the soup out of the ladle past my plate. The girl is very happy with the effect was already preparing to accept compliments, but it was not there. Our hero came out of an awkward situation for himself very unexpectedly. He went up to the girl and took the moth from her shoulder, saying, " Oh, what a beautiful butterfly! Euchelia nupta! A rare nocturnal lepidopteran! and so on. " Everything in this scene is great! Especially an Italian farmer who knows the Latin names of butterflies!

Everything happens between the 27th and 28th minutes of the movie

Heh-heh, I completely forgot about this movie, yes, it's a funny moment)

Do not forget about "Indiana Jones and the Temple of Doom"
There is an episode where the characters make their way through the secret passages of the dungeon and in one of the corridors their feet crunch through the mass of millipedes, cockroaches and other arthropods swarming on the floor. There is also a problem - among the whole mass, the South American woodcutter Harlequin clearly stands out at one moment, although the film is set in India.

In all parts of "Indiana Jones", the creators are quite free with different zoological objects: they give out non-venomous snakes for poisonous ones (in" I. D. and the Lost Ark " in one of the episodes, yellowbelly snakes generally act as snakes! ) And in the 4th film - "I. D. and the Kingdom of the Crystal Skull" - fantastic things happen in general: people are attacked and eaten alive by giant ants!!!

I recently watched the 1996 movie Joe's Apartment. The plot is ridiculous, but the film shocked me, because it's very brave to make a surreal comedy about cockroaches, which, by the way, are positive characters here! They sing, dance, and help Joe through several challenges.
Before that, I saw various films about cockroaches, but there cockroaches were purely negative characters. I especially remember Guillermo Del Toro's "Mutants", where a man in a raincoat turns out to be a giant cockroach on closer inspection.

And about Motra from "Godzilla-monster parade" Ishiro Honda 1968 forgot!
It was like such a giant moth. Or not? I forgot something...
But it's still a bit crazy.
Please correct me if I made a mistake.

There were already 2 moths there . One of them looked like a bear, and the other looked like a shovel... I remember how they cocooned themselves there between the skyscrapers

The Soviet film adaptation of the adventures of Sherlock Holmes and Dr. Watson.

In the very first film "Acquaintance "(the story "Motley Ribbon") Holmes and Watson are sitting in Miss Stonewater's bedroom at night when they hear a knock. As the hostess explained, this is the knock of a moth on the window. And indeed, in the next frame you can see a large scoop. The funny thing is that Holmes had already locked the shutters and turned out the lights in the room.

Naturalist and naturalist Stapleton in the film The Hound of the Baskervilles tells Watson that he chased a rare butterfly Cyclopides. We are clearly talking about a toast head, but which one?

A small study shows that we are probably talking about Carterocephalus palaemon. See, for example, here:

So Conan Doyle understood something. However, the phrase that "Cyclopides is rare in late autumn" sounds funny. :about) I would say that it is very rare. :о)

In my opinion, it was about a motley moth

I think it was about a motley butterfly

Quote from Conan Doyle

"Yes, I was chasing a Cyclopides. He is very rare and seldom found in the late autumn. What a pity that I should have missed him!" He spoke unconcernedly, but his small light eyes glanced incessantly from the girl to me.

Transcript from the site of fans of stories about Sherlock Holmes

Stapleton notices a strange insect (a butterfly, in fact) which he chases. The Cyclopides is now known as the Chequered Skipper butterfly and not usually found in England.

Well, if Chequered Skipper, then this is our banal C. palaemon
in the Fall? кхе

Here's another ut version:
http://www.madsci.org/posts/archives/2001-...98896.Zo.r.html

Cyclopides was an old name for several South African Skippers (defined as "Any of numerous butterflies of the families Hesperiidae and Megathymidae, having a hairy mothlike body, hooked tips on the antennae, and a darting flight pattern") of the family Hesperiidae. Unfortunately, "Cyclopides" actually referred to many different skippers of the otherwise unrelated genuses Acleros, Ampittia, Astictopterus, Kedestes, Metisella, and Tsitana. Only one of these species, the "Bush Hopper" Ampittia dioscorides camertes (originally Cyclopides camertes) was found outside of subsaharan Africa, although dioscorides are found only in India, Myanmar, and Sri Lanka. Since Sir Arthur Conan Doyle was well known for inventing species in some of his other books, it is likely that he liked the name, without knowing that the only Cyclopides in England were mounted in the collections of well traveled lepidopterists.

In the movie Man with the Golden Gun (1974), the main villain's headquarters is decorated with such a collection of insects.

In Sleepy Hollow, Johnny Depp turns over a human skull with his foot and a rather rather big carabus with a blue tint along the edge of the elytra crawls out of it.This episode is one of the most "colored" in the entire dark film.

about cyclopidis

And about sleepy Hollow, the carabus climbs out of the severed neck when L'g climbs there with tweezers

  about cyclopidis

It seems to me that this link is somewhat confusing. I'll say it again: from here - http://www.finerareprints.com/print_detail...?stock_no=11615 "it turns out that the genus Cyclopides was used for the species now called Carterocephalus sylvicola. Of course, it is not present in Britain and does not fly in the fall, but nevertheless Conan Doyle still hardly had African species in mind.
