Kayaks are appearing in all sorts of media these days, but I never expected 
kayaking in one of my favorite types of films ... 1950's B horror movies.  
This week I was watching the AMC horror marathon movie "The Deadly Mantis."  
Giant prehistoric preying mantis thaws in Artic and heads south.  One of 
first attacks is on a native villiage.  Great scene with 20-40 skin kakays 
being launched and paddled out into a bay.  It looks like some documentary 
footage spliced into the movie.  Anyone know what film this footage may have 
been taken from.  The kayak footage is very short, but I may have to rent the 
movie just to get a look at some real Greenland technique.
