Gorillas are scarier than clowns? I think that would depend on who you ask.

Do you think Ann Darrow would feel more comfortable if a giant clown had carried her up the Empire State Building?

Apparently when Spielberg shot the scene in Close Encounters of the Third Kind where the little boy encounters the aliens prior to his being whisked away in a red haze, in order to get the “right” reactions from the young actor Spielberg rolled cameras and brought out someone in a gorilla costume. This is the kid’s first reaction, where he takes a step backward and appears hesitant and unsettled. Spielberg then produced in a man dressed as a clown, which prompted the boy to break into a smile and relax. The moral of the story: gorilla suits = scary.

Pirillo needs to be careful—somebody might get ideas about shooting Bigfoot. THEN we’ll have something to argue about.
Sheesh………..The youth of today.

I see the point, Fhqwhgads. I think the suit can be even funny for young kids (of course, if you are comical and maybe you are accompanied by other costumed figures) but for toddlers, they can get scared.

Greetings and happy new year!

It depends on the age of the kids, Adam. I wore a gorilla costume — really just the head and hands, otherwise I was wearing normal clothes — while handing out candy at Halloween a year ago, and the youngest kids were distinctly unsure about the ape!

The guy with the suit could be a great hit in children’s birthday parties!!!
