I am--and since it's been a while since I logged into the message boards here at IMDb, had to jump thru all sorts of hoops to type this message!!

LOVE all the B movies of the late 1950's, early 1960's especially when giant mutant animals are involved!!
Live in the Chicago area and watch Sven all the time. Wish he would show more of these type movies.

I even remember the original Sven, that's how old I am....spent many a saturday night baby sitting and watch those B movies, once my little charges had gone to bed.

Enjoy the movie...wish I could be a chicken tosser in the studio...what a hoot that would be!!

Hey there momofthree, I used to spend most of summer in 78-80s in Geneva. I never saw Sven back then. How long has he been on?

You Bet! I watched it again, I've seen the "Deadly Mantis" many times now. IMO one of the better Giant Bug movies. I really enjoy the cast too, especially William Hopper and Craig Stevens because of their more well known later TV roles.

MeTV watcher checking in from 2015.

That's right. When I was your age, television was called books.
