		Other attributes that Devlin and Emmerich's Godzilla had that were new was the fact that this beast could burrow and run at 200+ miles per hour, but instead of using such amazing attributes for terror this monster used them for it's favorite pastime, running away.
		Some Devlin and Emmerich fans like to say that out of respect and love of films that inspired them Devlin and Emmerich will place scenes in their films that mirror past films, here's the cold hard truth, these "homage" scenes aren't homages at all, they are blatant forms of plagiarism.

		Devlin began his career as an actor, and his most noticeable role to film geeks would have to be as one of the students in Real Genius (although fans of Mystery Science Theater 3000 will remember him alongside Kim Cattrall in City Limits).

		DEVLIN: I had done the first season of LA Law and I had done a series called Hard Copy, and right after that I had taken a period where I wasn't acting for while – I had gone about six months without any work.

	Eight Legged Freaks - Director & Producer Video Interviews
		As Devlin recalls, "we were wondering if there was a way to recreate that kind of film with more sophisticated visual effects and state-of-the-art production values, to bring it into the modern era but not lose the charm and humour that made those films distinctive in the first place."
		Emmerich and Devlin wanted Elkayem to direct because, as Devlin explains, "we wanted him to express his vision the way he did so effectively in the short, only on a larger scale, with the resources of a full production team behind him, our combined experience as filmmakers, plus the best effects.
		Devlin suggests the possibility that arachnophobia is a primal fear dating back to our earliest ancestors, and supports this idea with a story related to him by one of the crew members who recently worked on a film with chimpanzees.

		Now, I'm being a little unfair, because the filmmakers lay a lot of ground for our assumptions, and most of mine proved correct when I listed to Emmerich and Devlin's DVD commentary.
