StudioADI, a practical effects studio that worked on Paul W.S. Anderson's original 1995 Mortal Kombat movie, has released a new behind-the-scenes video documenting the design and construction of the animatronic Goro from the film.

Check out the mighty Goro from 'Mortal Kombat' in all his animatronic glory! State of the art in 1995 meant heavy electric motors to drive Goro's upper arms, controlled by a telemetry suit feeding info through an umbilical into the 120-pound hero animatronic suit and early lip synch playback to pre-recorded dialogue. Also some quick cuts of the incredibly patient Martial Arts Trainer and Stunt Coordinator, Pat Johnson, who had worked with such icons as Bruce Lee and Steve McQueen.

Technology has come some ways. I like how they did his facial reactions. Up until the end, I was wondering how the upper arms were moving. Then I saw that guy on the said performing the part where he fell.

In the words of Dark_Raiden "Creepy n Cool"
