18 Genius Pieces Of Movie Exposition

Tell it like it is...

Slither (2006)

The Exposition: [Images show an alien creature's POV. It pins down another alien animal and bites into its flesh. All around other diseased monstrous beasts feed on more alien animals. In time-lapse photography unfamiliar plant life grows sick and withers, dying out. The diseased beasts cry out and are dying themselves, feasting on their own limbs as they do.] 
 
The Short Version: The alien invader consumes worlds and all life within it. 
 
Why It's Genius: How do you tell the back story of an alien being that’s skipping from world to world, infecting each planet’s inhabitants with beasties, taking zombie-like control of all living things and then moving on when the worlds are decimated?
 
Why not have one of your characters connect with one of the alien bugs while resisting its advances. It's kind of like a mind-meld, only more violent.

      Im shocked that the Harry Potter Deathly Hallows part 1 animation about the 3 brothers/ Deathly Hallows is not there! that is awsome and could be a short film in its own right!

      I can not believe Back to the Future part 2 is't included. The Doc, a black board, a piece of chalk and an alternate 1985...classic!

      No it hasn't. No Indianapolis speech from Jaws? One of the greatest of them all.

      Ermmmmmmm freakshows - where on earth is the Prologue from the Lord of the Rings? The first 5 minutes of that is just stunning and sets up the trilogy perfectly! I also agree with Azazeal - The Tale of the Three Brothers is just a beautiful piece of cinema too!

      i def agree about harry potter and lord of the rings, but i found Serenity to be a great one, finding out the history of the alliance and the war in an actual history class then Wham! straight into Rivers situation and her escape, which once again turns out to be exposition as well
