Beware The Giant, River Dwelling Cephalopod!  Here Comes The SQUID!

You know what’s missing from most giant monster films?  Romance!  Romance and comedy!  At least that’s what Australian film makers Daley Pearson and Luke Tierney think.  They are the creators of $quid, the upcoming romantic monster comedy based on their own 2007 award winning short film.  Comparing the teaser for the feature to the short - which is available below the break - it’s obvious that they’ve expanded things out greatly, adding characters and messing with the premise a bit but both versions revolve around a giant squid loose in the Brisbane river.  In the short version one of the characters owes the squid a large amount of money, no idea if that carries over to the feature.  Goofy, yes, but it looks very well made and the end of the short is a very surprising treat that I recommend very highly.  Again - teaser for the feature linked below, complete short below the break.
