Watch carefully the scene when the giant grabs Gloria Talbott in his hand. It looks as though they slid the film off the printer (or something like that) to effect the "upward" motion.
I wonder what the audience reaction was to this shot, besides unbridled laughter? Watching it recently, I was compelled to rewind that shot couple times. The whole video frame, background and all, just goes up at an angle, leaving a black empty frame. You just can't believe it - such a complete and utter betrayal of whatever slender suspension of disbelief the audience could muster at that point. I'd have walked out if I wasn't at home.

FYI the same "effect" was done for intentional humor to eliminate Poochie in the Itchy, Scratchy and Poochie episode on THE SIMPSONS.
