The Gill-man's legacy lives on.
Summary SCREENRANT VIDEO OF THE DAY SCROLL TO CONTINUE WITH CONTENT Creature from the Black Lagoon gets an update in creepy new art. Directed by Jack Arnold, the 1954 horror sci-fi movie follows a group of scientists trying to capture and study a rogue prehistoric beast, later coined the Gill-man, found in the depths of the Amazon jungle.
In an eerie art from @zona_zigma, Creature from the Black Lagoon is reimagined with AI. The art features a variety of Creature from the Black Lagoon looks, including sketches and fuller-body, prosthetic-looking art. In one image, the famous Gill-man monster dons ropes and other underwater-associated attire. In another, the creature looks massive and domineering as he bares his teeth on a human woman.
In their post, the artist refers to Creature from the Black Lagoon as part of “The Golden Age of Horror.” The Gill-man became one of the classic horror monsters of the era, along with others such as Godzilla. The AI art celebrates Gill-man’s legacy by giving the creature multiple updated looks. The Horror Legacy Of Creature From The Black Lagoon Explained Though crafted with a fairly thin plot, Creature from the Black Lagoon was an important technical achievement of the time. The horror movie was filmed and released in 3D, a format that was novel to many viewers. This gave the campy Gill-man monster a more pronounced and scary feel, creating jump scares in a dimension that audiences had not yet experienced.
Creature from the Black Lagoon ended up spawning two sequels: Revenge of the Creature in 1955 and The Creature Walks Among Us in 1956. The former was also released in 3D, while the latter was in 2D as the appeal of 3D wore off among audiences. There have also been multiple other abandoned attempts to remake Creature from the Black Lagoon over the years, including a pitch from James Gunn.

It's Confirmed. M87's Black Hole is Actually SpinningThe supermassive black hole at the heart of M87 was the target of the Event Horizon Telescope, revealing the area around its event horizon for the first time. Although an accretion disk surrounded the black hole, astronomers weren't sure if the black hole itself was rotating. They imaged the region with radio telescopes and discovered the remnants of polar jets, showing that the black hole's rotation axis had undergone precession over time. This precession indicates that the black hole is rotating; they're just not sure how quickly yet.
