The suits in this case includes gorillas, aliens, robots and Godzilla. This 2012 documentary looks at monster suits and the people who wear them in movies. Bob Burns shows off his own and classic gorilla suits. We get some inside info on Robbie the Robot and the Creature From The Black lagoon. And we find out the original Godzilla was made from used tire material with a bamboo and wire frame that scraped the skin off its wearer. All framed with a fitting and action from the monster from the 2013release Knights of Badassdom.

This would be a great film for SF39 btw.
 

I can't complain but sometimes I still do. Life's been good to me so far.

I met the director of this documentary last year in LA and bought a copy of the film.
I believe it would be an excellent choice for inclusion into SF39.
 

Dinner break? What's a dinner break?
