Le scorpion Trailers

Scorpions are among the creepier land animals, and this nature short from Eclair lets its audience see that for themselves, with their scuttling gait, their choice of habitats -- it looks like a dry sand pit, somewhere, according to the Dutch titles I saw on the print -- and their charming custom of going up to a mouse a hundred times their size, jabbing it, walking away, and then an hour later, the mouse is twitching and dying, poisoned.

Reviews
Ceticultsot Beautiful, moving film.
Lancoor A very feeble attempt at affirmatie action
Sanjeev Waters A movie that not only functions as a solid scarefest but a razor-sharp satire.
Taha Avalos The best films of this genre always show a path and provide a takeaway for being a better person.
