Global panic ensues when it is revealed that a mysterious UFO is actually a giant turkey-like bird that flies at supersonic speed and has no regard for life or architecture.
Editor's Verdict
"The movie 'The Giant Claw' is a classic 1950s sci-fi/horror monster movie centered on a giant, technologically advanced alien bird attacking the world. There is absolutely no indication that the setting, plot, themes, iconography, or resolution have any connection to the Christmas season."
