In this episode of Tested, Adam Savage talks about practical creature effects in films and why they are worth it as he tours a selection of the practical creatures Spectral Motion, which worked on films like Hellboy II: The Golden Army, Lady in the Water, and the show Guillermo del Toro's Cabinet of Curiosities.

“From animatronic beasts straight out of nightmares to towering costumes for creature performers, this showcase is just a small sample of the decades of incredible work done at Mike Elizalde's studio.”

I love when genre films, especially creature feature horror movie lean into the practical effects side of things. I wish we would see more of that from Hollywood.
