Decapoda Shock is a 2011 Spanish short science fiction action parody film written, directed, co-produced, and with brief animated sequences by Javier Chillon.[1] The film depicts an astronaut infected by an alien crab-like creature, transforming him into a decapod crustacean/human hybrid. Meanwhile, the astronaut's family has disappeared. Both events are the result of a sinister conspiracy, for which he seeks vengeance. As of 2019, Chillon's second film has been selected for more than 300 international film festivals, and received over thirty awards and honours within the first two years of its release,[2] including a Méliès d'Argent.[4]
