Eight Arms To Hold You

I find it a little hard to believe that The Goonies is 25 years old. I am also surprised that I never knew about this deleted scene wherein our heroic band of foul-mouthed adolescents get attacked by a giant octopus!

In this clip, the song used to defeat the octopus is “Eight Arms to Hold You” by Goon Squad. Here’s the original video, full of stop-motiony goodness. It’s a classic tale of Octopus Meets Girl, Octopus Helps Girl Win Band Audition.
