Plot summary

The Giant Claw is about a "flying battleship" terrorizing the world's skies. First discovered by an electrical engineer in the North Pole, the action picks up quickly with the monster attacking an Air Force and a Navy fighter plane. After a stopover in Quebec where a French Canadian, Pierre, notices what he calls "la carcagne", the audience finally gets a close up of the monster in all it's hilarious marionette glory. The "flying battleship" is actually an extraterrestrial bird of enormous size with an anti-gravity shield protecting it from all earthly weaponry. After the electrical engineer discovers that the bird can be stopped with the use of a "mu particle", and the UN building is destroyed, the monster is destroyed and sinks into the ocean below.—Campbellnator
