Jack the Giant Killer/YMMV


The 1962 film provides examples of:

  • Damsel Scrappy: Princess Elaine.
  • Narm/Narm Charm: Buckets of it.
  • So Bad It's Good
  • Special Effect Failure: The stop motion creatures in particular, look more like Gumby than any Ray Harryhausen creature they were meant to copy.
    • Then there is that metal support thingy used to keep the "Kraken" puppet steady that they animators forgot to edit out of a frame or two. It appears for a moment and vanishes, but thanks to the jerky and choppy animation, it can plainly be spotted without the need of freeze-framing.
